This type of rig is often difficult for many anglers because of its “lack of feeling”. The FISHROLLER improves on this shortcoming by adding more water-catching area on the head and inflated gills. A clear feel of the action is achieved by adding just enough resistance.
This fine resistance also pushes water on straight-line retrieves and gives it presence. Combined with the air pocket that gives it ample float, a “dead-slow underwater hovering” is achieved, which is essential for the Hobasuto technique.
The other important element to get fish to bite in mid-depth is a rolling action. This is made possible with a good thickness that allows easy rolling action for anyone.
Its square-sided body and sharp edges create a roll and strong flash that attracts bass effectively.
