Ryan, sorry for the late response. I don't know if i would say it had great sensitivity when fishing slug-gos, but it was everything I wanted in a rod that would throw them. It's a fast action rod that works the slug-gos nicely. Always felt like I was working the slug the way I wanted to so in that regard, I guess yes, it was very sensitive. I had cork above the reel seat for the sole reason of working the slug-go. I would hold the cork and rest the butt of the rod on my fore-arm. Had great results doing this. So if you're looking for a rod to fish slug-gos with I would definitely recommend it. Another rod to consider would be a GLoomis 1084. It's also nine feet, but not as fast (still pretty fast) as an allstar. Also much more expensive, but they have a great warranty...
