Fall drop shotting with Wackem Big Sissys soaked in Kick N Bass for big spotted bass. All fish came on a brushpile on a ledge in 25' of water in the mouth of a creek. For drop shotting I use a Denali Rosewood 6'6'' M-F spinning rod because of it's sensitivity as well as strength to pull big, aggressive spotted bass out of thick brush. The Rosewood I use has a wooden foregrip which to me is a great balance of comfort and sensitivity. Normally, rods with no foregrip can be very uncomfortable but having exposed blank adds sensitivity. With a cork or foam foregrip the rods may be comfortable but EVA foam and cork deaden the sensitivity. The wood is more dense and sensitive but at the same time a more natural and comfortable grip (and looks very slick).
