Power is usually described by terms such as light, medium, heavy. NOT terms like moderate, slow, fast as these are action terms.
Also a rod description doesn't hold true from brand to brand or even within the same brand. A Light powered but fast action inshore rod might be similar to Medium Heavy powered but Moderate action bass rod.
Sensitivity is another term that has different meanings depending on user. Some refer to sensitive has having a easily bent tip (ie slow action), the more correct usage (IMO) is that it transmit vibration easily.
For casting jigs, I prefer an UL or L powered (depending on jig weight) fast to extra fast action. This usually means a spin-jig blank (which tend to be a faster action than most other styles but still have a light tip and very very sensitive (vibrations sense)) which usually are 6'6" or 7'.
For a more dabbling/dipping/pitching jig approach to a very specific target, I prefer a Light powered but moderate action rod that is 11-14' long.
