I've been saying for a few years now how we need to see a new technology in bite alarms i.e. not a roller (that can freeze) or delk. Looks like this may be it? That said, the tech does look similar to a delk which is heavily patented, will be interesting to see how that pans out. It is a SAVAGE market to break into, I wish the guy the best of luck.

My statement regards cosmetics not being important to me was not directed at you, I was merely pointing out that functionality is what counts (to me). How you've managed to turn that into a catalyst to sling mud is beyond me. So I guess we're now looking at a race against time to see how many people you can alienate before you get banned. Same as last time you joined, and the time before that, and the time before that...........

bluelabel Posted February 11, 2020 Report Share Posted February 11, 2020 BOT.... I saw thos alarms at the brentwood show and they looked like a way of getting round the vibration system that Delkim use.... not sure on their efficacy but it would be interesting to try a set out.... not sure on the open section on the front though.... a nice water inlet to be honest yonny 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carpepecheur Posted February 12, 2020 Report Share Posted February 12, 2020 If I need to use an alarm, I am probably fishing with very tight lines – bolt lead style. I am curious to know how people make use of the extra sensitivity of expensive alarms. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
