I more so want the sensitivity for lets say dragging the jig. But also you do want sensitivity with spinner baits as well. If you can feel the blades move while reeling and the suddenly stop there is a chance that you have a fish on and its swimming towards you. This is especially the case with bigger fish. Atleast from my experience.

Thank you all for your timely responses and knowledge. I think I'm going to start with this kit. . Has anyone used this blank before? Also does anyone know how it would compare to the berkley lightning shock rod in terms of sensitivity?

Absolutely ive already a couple of rod guides and tips and im very interested in the process of building. I was looking into the turnkey kits because they come with all the equipment. As of right now I have none looking for the best options before pulling the trigger

Thank you for the add. I'm a bass fisherman looking to build my own rods. Would you recommend the turnkey kits on mudhole.com or something else? Also looking for high sensitivity blanks at a lower price until i get rod building down. Any recommendations? Thanks in advanced
