Yes,that looks like the new version of the old brown GHS 3113M. That has been a very popular centerpin rod for salmon and steelhead in BC. Until recently you had to get these in Canada. I made two 3113's into casting rods and mainly use them for tossing small spinners and spoons,like Dick Nites, to silvers. The slow action is extremely forgiving when playing salmon on very small hooks. On fish over 20lbs I seem to have about 50/50 chance of beaching them but that's more due to the 10lb mainline,8lb leader and small hooks than the capability of the rod. It does have decent backbone in the butt section. On the rating of this rod I think it's a stretch to go as high as 20lb test and 1oz but Sage are the experts so whatever they say. I can't comment on the sensitivity for drift fishing because I have never actually used this rod for drift fishing. I do think the slow action would make it not so great for drift fishing. You might try posting on the fishBC or anglinBC about this rod becuase there are a lot of long time users in BC . Edit-Forgot to mention the action of this rod makes casting light gear a dream.
