I got the opportunity to pick up one of these recently and would like some input on using this as a dedicated worm rod.  most weights I use on my lake will be 1/8 to 1/4 oz without the worm or hook.  I would think total weight with a worm and hook would be around 1/2 oz.  I have read the Kaden has a fast tip so I was hoping for some feedback on the sensitivity with bottom contact baits.  Thanks

My Kaden 714 is a prototype (split handle), and use it for T-rigged worms, craws and occasionally jigs. I rarely go much over a half ounce package and use 30lb PowerPro, I've been very impressed with the Kaden series they fish like a much higher end rod and that includes sensitivity.

I own 2 Kadens. Both are 713s, however. The 4 series will suit you just fine for t-rigs. It's very sensitive and the tip is really fast.
