Carrot stix by far the most sensitive. A little wimpy in the longevity department. Falcon cara is as close to the best rod out there. Very sensitive, and I can't break em. Amistad rod is my favorite.

+1! Ron can put a rod in your hand that fits your budget and is on the same level as much more expensive rods. I love my jig rod from Reel Time, I use it every day.

Under $200, Shimano Cumara by far... If you can find a used IMX or a used GLX that would next.

NRX. Like Cam said the wild card helps bandaid the wallet.

the entire Dobyns Savvy lineup (except for the 766Flip, but it will be in a couple of weeks) is now available with micro guides, so they will be even lighter and more sensitive than before

For your price range the Dobyns Savvy series is a great choice. At Tackle Warehouse with Pro-Staff discount (10%) you can get it shipped free for appx $153. Just call them and mention Cody Malone and you can get the Pro-Staff discount.

The Dobyns rods are hard to beat and Savvy series is a great rod for the $$.

+1.....Keep in mind I have not owned a Kistler, I have met Trey, extremley nice guy. I havent owned any Gary Loomis.

The most sensitive rod I own is an All-Star IM-10 made in Houston. However, you may have a hard time finding one new.
