Bite alarms help.

Hiya,

Ive never used these contraptions before but I want one for my carp rod, you know if I'll be putting a feeder on my carp rod and I need to know if I have a fish on, can you people suggest some cheap bite alarms say around the £20 mark, I know it's cheap but Im only after a cheapish one just to get me started.

Thanks
Fisherman woolley

Re: Bite alarms help.

Check out the Fox Micron Warrior, which you can pick up for around £20 or the Fox Micron M which you can pick up for around £25. Personally I prefer the Micron M but either are perfectly suited as an 'entry level' alarm and are from a very good brand.

Re: Bite alarms help.

I havnt used them but someone I know bought some korum ones for a trip to work and says the are very good. To be honest for that money I think they will be all around same standard. Fox ones you prob won't go wrong :)
