It was "ok", but the only reason I didn't like it was because of that split grip. I didn't like the little amount of cork at the but. I really want atleast enough to put my whole hand around and hold like a handle for when I cast.As far as comparing sensitivity - there's little differences, but a fish tapping is a fish tapping. I also think a lot of the sensitivity has to do with the type of line your using. I changed up this weekend a little bit on my skeet reese reel... I was planning on pitching in heavy timber, so I picked up a pack of 20# Seaguar Red Label Fluoro - wow is all I can say... and that reel can definitely handle it. I'm seriously debating on what the next rod is going to be for that skeet reel. Right now I'm not going to get anything until this Daiwa Procyon gives out - and that is a very sensitive rod for $50</blockquote>
