I really like my Kistler Z-bones
Whether you think you can or you can't, you are probably right.

There is no right answer to this question. If you want the best solid sensitive rod you can find. What you have to do is.
1) Take someone with you. You can not pick out a sensitive rod by yourself.
2) Find a rod you really like the feel of.
3) Place the tip of the fishing rod against the person you brought with you throat.
4) have them say your name
If you can feel the vibration of the person talking through the other end of the fishing rod. You sir, have found a sensitive rod. Don't fall for some of those over expensive rods. Some of the most sensitive rods I have ever bought cost me about 60 dollars.

I would use to say Loomis. Right now I haven't found anything that compares to the Kistler Z-Bone. I've experienced it to many times when I can feel or since the slightest pressure with soft plastics. These rods have taken a lot of use and some abuse with no issues.

Most sensitive rod I own, and I have several brands and I don't have a favorite brand, although Falcon is probably my top brand. That being said the most sensitive,
Light, balanced rod I own is a G Loomis NRX.
I use specifically for off shore worm and jig fishing. I had a thread about this a few months back and the consensus was a high end G Loomis. They are expensive but amazing.

Pretty wide open on that... A snoopy rod can detect a bite pretty well...

Sensitivity is too subjective from person to person. Try as many brands as you can then pick what feels best to you. This is very true! Go fishing with different friends and try their rods. You might find that you prefer different brands for separate presentations.

I also like Kistler Z-Bones but it is more individual preference.

Actually sensitivity is 100% quantifiable so its not as subjective as a lot of people are making it seem.

 This Falcon Cara Micro is so sensitive that even Micheal Jackson would have been jealous. Lol
