bite alarms for pike

Post by chief on Thu Jul 08, 2010 3:43 pm

im thinking of upgrading my alarms for this winters campaign, dont have need for recievers just want a set of 2/3 good quality alarms. at the moment im thinking delkims but i have looked at the billys back-biter alarms.

anyone have any thoughts on this, i dont really do any carp fishing so these babys will be soley for pike fishing.

Each to there own on the delks, some like em some don,t,

heard nothing but good reports for the billys and at one stage was tempted to buy some....

early indication is paramount as we know...

I actually use them together Neil, best of both worlds, the early indication of the Delkims and the visual indication of the Back biters ulimate setup.

I use mine in conjunction with a front fox alarm. Steve even does a wireless kit for the backbiters.
