  1. PGA Dropout's post in Megabass Orochi X1O “Bushadder” was marked as the answer   
    The Bushadder is my second X10. Similar to the Swamp Survivor, the blank is quite chunky; looks a lot like a glass rod. It's not light, but the balance is quite good and the reel seat is probably my favorite from Megabass. Very comfortable with a Bantam A on it and 16 lb Sniper.
     
    It's a very versatile rod and surprisingly sensitive. The sensitivity is most impressive when dragging a bait. I've used it for 6" Magdrafts (rigged and freestyle), Sleeper Gills, 3/8 and 1/2 oz jig pitching, and 5/8 oz footballs. I haven't pushed the top of its rating yet but if I can find a 2 oz rat I will. I have not tried braid or frogs with it but I might.
     
    I won't make any bold claims as far as sensitivity, but I think it may be more sensitive than my P5 Super Destroyer (when dragging). I need to put them side by side. Same for my Adrenas; feels better but not scientific (sidenote: the old 610M Adrena is a killer little dragging rod for like a Keitech Model 2). 
     
    However it's nowhere near as light in hand. It's like you're dragging a football jig with a very sensitive glass rod. It's initially pretty weird but it grew on me.
     
    Let me know if you have any additional questions.
