Are carrot stix sensitive?

Featured Replies

Thanks for all the replies.  I once heard some one say they weren't sensitive, but i have never tried one.  Everyone on here seems to think otherwise.

They are reasonably sensitive, but not as sensitive as they should be for $150. The Shimano Crucials are usually about $140 and they are noticeably more sensitive than Carrot Stix.

I disagree. I picked up the 6'9" MH F for jigs and noticed my hook up ratio just about doubled. Although I have never used a Crucial, I think the rod is definitely worth the $150 as far as sensitivity goes. Its worth $200 overall  :).

Not as much as some will want you to believe. For the $, there are WAAAAY better rods with better components! Crucials, as stated above are excellent.

i just recently picked up my first carrot. I have not tested it enough to comment nor do I own a  Crucial rod. I only paid 110 for my carrot through ebay (new). I will say for 110 it is the best rod I have used.

Like all rods...  they can be no more sensitive than the user's own hands, which is part of the reason you are going to get a wide range of responses on this thread.

IMO, they are better than Crucials.
