Uriel,
My email isn't hidden, so feel free to send me one if you have further questions. I built my rod to work jerk baits for smallmouth bass. It does this very well. As far as sensitivity goes, I use Power Pro braided line, and it will make a spaghetti noodle seem reasonably sensitive. Nonetheless, the blank is stiff and light in weight, hence it is a very sensitive rod, IMO.
Tight lines,
Hunter

From ghoulies and ghosties,
and long leggedy beasties,
and things that go bump in the night,
Good Lord deliver us!
