I wrote a review of one of these 8 years ago. For some reason, it had vanished off the site, so I've added it back:

I still use the same alarm in that picture as my spare!

I read the review, quite comprehensive thank you. Not sure about this statement though, ‘turn it up as loud as possible’ test. The GFM is perfectly loud enough – if you need louder, then you’re not fishing responsibly'.......not fishing responsibly?

This type of bite detection does not suit everyone, I rely upon, drop backs or simple bobbins (used to use washing up liquid bottle tops).

Those were the days. If only they still had them on the fairy.

I believe that I may still have some in an old tackle box somewhere.

Very cheap washing liquid, mostly from Asian shops, still have those tops.

Thanks I will keep a lookout, just in case I have a rush of blood to the head and do some deadbaiting this winter.
