This page will be used to review the items of tackle that I have fished with and how they performed.
Fox Micron M alarms
Good alarms. They dont have many functions, only a volume control and on/ off switch but it is a good alarm anyway. I have owned two of these for over a year now and they have not let me down yet. They are waterproof to a certain extent but there may be problems if they are dropped in the lake. Worth every penny of the £22 that they cost.8/10
Good alarms
Dinsmores 36in landing net
I finally realised that my folding trout net was just too small when I just about fitted my first kingsbury fish in it, a 17lb mirror. The next day I went out and paid £19 for the net. I thought this was a bit pricey considering that I could have a net with a handle mail order for £20 but as I wanted to go fishing the next day I coughed up the cash. It has a small crack in the handle and It smells disgusting even though I have washed it repeatedly. I was disappointed with the bag that it came with because it is just cheap plastic but now I have replaced the bag with an old rod cloth.6/10
Serves its purpose
Nash ballbuster indicators
Iwas looking for a set of new indicators because I had a set of cheap bobbins, which on one occasion had got caught and not let the line pass through on a run and it cost me a fish. I paid £7 each for the two and they have not yet let me down. They are very versitile and I use them for feeder fishing as well because the weight can be adjusted to make them light or heavy. Very good value for money. 9/10
