[QUOTE="Jim, post: 2667, member: 2"] How do you test a rods sensitivity? I have been reading that book mentioned earlier in the waterhole post and they gave a simple (seems effective) way to check a rods sensitivity. Here goes. Pick a rod and throw a reel on it. Put some line on it (they used mono). Let out about 8-10 inches from the top. Now while your holding it in a position like your areeling in a crankbait, have someone flick the line with there finger. The more sensitive the rod, the better the vibration you will feel. No more acting like Zorro in the fish isle, No more bending the rod like an Ugly stick commercial. LOL! [/QUOTE]
