I had similar with a Barbel last week. Had a single bleep at 3am, looked at the rod tip and it straightened a bit then started rattling but no line was being taken as it kited downstream on a tight line. Hit it and a 7lb Barbel was on the end.

I've had loads of sets of Delkims over the years

NEVER EVER HAD A SINGLE SECONDS PROBLEM WITH ANY OF THEM

And I would never use an alarm that did not have a sensitivity adjustment

I got some Delk EV'Ds to see if I would get on with them, having always used wheels.

Long story short, love them, doubt I'll go back to anything else. Not that's out at the moment.

Will be getting some TXI-Ds when I can get them delivered without the Mrs seeing.

So you want one of us to email you a fake invoice to show her? How does £25.99 per alarm sound?

Ring around for prices you can get them just as cheap here as you can from overseas

Made the mistake of taking her to a tackle shop so she knows exactly how much they cost unfortunately!

I had the old delks and never had a problem with them. Bought the new ones and after a while the receiver stopped working. They have replaced the board inside but now the speaker hisses pretty much most of the time which is disappointing.

Wish I would have kept the txi's.
