Buy Fishing Alarms 👉bit.ly/2CqGBlR

Would these work with slack line? Or low drag? Or do they require a closed bail with tight drag? I'm thinking about using them for ice fishing.

@coolstuffhowtoandfishing5488

They are tripped when the line is tight but not tight enough to trip it. Then when a fish bites, it trips the alarm...

I have one and have come to the conclusion that the rod needs to be less vertical for the alarm to work well.

Cool I should get one for pike fishing

Hi, thanks for the video. Is there any sort of volume control on them? Would be nice to e able to turn it up and down depending on the location so as to not annoy other fishers etc :)

Surely does piss the wife off when you're camping and the thing goes off multiple times at night lol

They are good for beach fishing it's got a volume with it to so you can turn it down and not p*ss of the other guy's and girls next to you lol but what i don't like is you can't send your bait and led out with it on the rod but good little bit of kit tho

You think i could use these for bear perimeter defense while camping?

does it only recognise bites or wind aswell? how does it work for small fish?

@coolstuffhowtoandfishing5488

It's pretty sensitive, fine for small fish, it would have to be pretty windy out to have it trip the alarm. Doesn't work well in a current though because that just sets it off regardless....thanks for watching!

do you use it for both day and nightime? I only fish on days and I am thinking about buying this but is it usefull on the day?

@coolstuffhowtoandfishing5488

I use 3 poles often as is allowed in NY. When I use bait as opposed to a lure I always use these, day or night. Often I won't get a bite for an hour or more, and I get bored watching my poles and want to get up, walk around or check something on my phone. This gives me the freedom to do that. There are other good inexpensive ones though, I also like the kastking madbite.

Think this could work for a lake or is it more for bigger fish

Are the sensitive enough for small fish such as bullhead?

Yes, they are very sensitive.

do you know if you can throw in the line with the alarm in and can you real it in with the alarm

@coolstuffhowtoandfishing5488

3 жыл бұрын

You hook the alarm up after casting. You could reel it in while your line is still snaked through the alarm, but It would be easier and less annoying to unhook it. Takes half a second.

Guy, you're only setting a small, sharp, hook into the soft tissue of a fish's mouth. You don't need to yank the pole that hard, and certainly not hard enough for these to "fly off."
