The Rollover Indicator

I started using Barry’s rollovers in August 2007, having experimented with all manner of low resistance indicators for many years (since 1970!). I have used the rollovers in all sorts of conditions, from dead calm to blowing a hooly, and have managed to achieve sensitive drag free indication at all times. The indicators have sufficient adjustment to deal with almost any situation, from heavy drift on still waters to heavy flows on rivers and drains, without the initial resistance of a drop off style indicator. They also look most impressive, are robust and withstand much abuse, and confuse other anglers no end! In short, if you’re looking for the ultimate low resistance indicator, this is it! As for the fish, during the first 12 months, they’ve accounted for 6 eels over 4lbs, 2 over 5lbs and 3 over 6lbs up to 6:14 – none of which I would have caught without them (only joking, but it has made fishing for them a lot easier). I also use them for Zander and Pike, with similar effectiveness.

Customer satisfaction has been reflected in some of the quotes. I was directed to this posted on one of the forums

“Well the resistance nemesis has been well and truly kicked back into the last century. These little babies are adjustable to the extent where they could be used for legering for Roach (not joking) - they are mega sensitive.

Had the Delks set at no.4 sensitivity and one take moved the indicator significantly before the alarm bleeped.

As there is no clip to pull the line from, there is no point of increased resistance - absolute perfection. I was just fishing for the Pike but really want to give the Middle level drain a bash for the Zeds.

I'm just going to customize them with some reflective tape and look into how to stick an isotope onto them without affecting their operation.

I reckon if you are into your predators these things are a must!”
