This may not seem much but I have set the hook many times this year while NOT looking at my floater, I just felt the bite through the braid/rod and set the hook. If these rods you speak of are even more sensitive than the St Croix then I would definitely be impressed. I have not felt a G. Loomis Trout or Panfish rod, but have used their bass rods ( not mine) and did like the action and sensitivity. I am beginning to understand this UL rod thing, and really enjoy the learning journey.

Thanks for the comment. You know it’s funny, years ago.....really several decades ago......UL fishing was much bigger than now. I’m sure many of us pushing 70 remember Lamiglass.....Falcon......St Croix was in there also. There were other....at the time.....big names in the UL line of making rods also. But I’m thinking that was a time when all those rod makers were still in the USA and were individual companies instead part of some huge conglomerate.
