ATT Bite Alarm with Customisation

Sadly My TMC Bite Alarms began to show signs of fatigue and it was time to replace them. This time I was split between ATTs and Delkims until my wife made an inaccurate off the wall comment which just made me laugh but inadvertently nailed the result. “Say hello to my little friends”

[@profex85]

I could not make Up my decision for delkims txi or the fox rx+ . But for the looks those atts are absolutly beautiful . I m in love with them . Think ill go for those !! Nice kit mate!

[@MaffTUK]

You won't regret buying ATT'S they have never let me down lots of chaps i fish with have moved over now, they are simple but effective kind regards Matt

[@craigstratford5086]

I love the simplicity of Gardner alarms and changed my trusty TLBs for these and they have never let me down . I sent them back for the underlit upgrade and the service I received was first class . The receiver range could be better in the standard model but mine will at some point be going back to have the Ariel upgrade carried out and then they will be the bomb.

[@MaffTUK]

Totally agree Craig, I have had no issues with these at all and a lot of chaps i know are moving towards them, thanks for the comment regards Matt

[@stevewhitehead1634]

They look nice but my mate had a major issue in the winter with the wheels freezing cost him a few fish to be honest my personal choice are delks never let me down ever tight lines guys good luck christening them maff tight lines 🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣

Hello Steve thanks bud however I may have to point out these alarms are now 4 years old I made this vid in 2016 but on a good note they are still going very strong and I love them many thanks Matt 👍

Just for anyone watching this WD40 on the wheels will stop the wheel from freezing. Just a light spray before fishing in winter will prevent the moisture from settling on them and freezing. I've got ATTs because I've seen them underwater full submerged and still work fine. I've seen Delks stop working because of water ingres from rain. I had a guy stop by my swim once and said "oh are they ATTs...I don't like them, what if the reciever breaks, they're useless, I'll stick to my Delkim Evs". Then the guy in the swim next to him shouted "your alarms going off mate"....he ran off and missed a take. Haha if only he had a receiver which the EVs can't have, I did laugh. £50 for new reciever just carry a spare and ask Gardner to warranty the old one. 🤷‍♂️

[@chrisfisher2568]

i love that pod

[@chrisfisher2568]

bargain too!

[@MaffTUK]

@@chrisfisher2568 still going strong Chris worth every penny those alarms but the pod is a one of a kind hand made and is a take on an original solar pod ....you wont see another one anywhere

[@chrisfisher2568]

@@MaffTUK iv recently bought the new direction alarms, u can link to your phone, only been out once with them so far so early days as to whether they're any good though. What did you think of Baden Hall fishery? its quite local to me ( about 20 miles) im yet to catch from the speci lakes lol

[@ghoststories1198]

Had the att for years and they were great

[@MaffTUK]

They are good, my mate got them first and when my old ones started to fail the deal was already half done and it was a good shout :-)

[@carpmoocha9744]

Hi mate, how did you get the lanyard on the Attx receiver without a case?

[@MaffTUK]

there is a dedicated area for the lanyard to go into you dont need a case you can see it (sort of) at 10:45

[@majkatina]

Hello Maff.Did you test the sensitivity of the alarms for Zig Rig fishing?Which magnet reel do you recommend me for zig rig ? Thanks

[@Enpassantful]

I found the same problem with the new Gardner ATTs IW alarms with the ATTx receiver, the lights go on but the alarm does not always sound, the wheel has to turn a few times to bring the alarm back to life.

[@djdave29]

Where did you get the stainless snag ears Maff?

[@MaffTUK]

Hello Mick I just looked on Ebay and found a chap who makes them in the uk.. I simply typed in "stainless steel snag ears" great quality and a fraction of the cost , hope that helps Mick, regards Matt

[@dannyking612]

Hi maff what colour are the rollers u got. Are they a yellow or green i want some

[@timbyrne8707]

I’ve got same alarms but find the covers a pain to get off . Yours seem to come off much easier. Have you done anything to the covers or am I just unlucky with mine ? Tim

[@MaffTUK]

No you are correct they are not easy to get off Dave bought dome neoprene covers for them but I simply use two hands place each thumb on the stainless Snag ears on the pod and using my middle finger and nail slide them up if you look at my latest bluebells video 1:37 minutes in you can see me use that technique 😁

[@timbyrne8707]

Maff T UK Funny enough I’ve just ordered a back snag kit for them and it includes the neoprene covers so job done 👍

[@davidfisher7541]

They look the business I’m thinking of getting them

[@davidmedrano1379]

Hi David from California I love catfishing a lot I was wondering where can I get those rods that you use here in California

[@paulrobinson9486]

Hi how did u fit the isotopes in u atts thanx

[@foghornleghornii5480]

Hello mate , top video ! I’m thinking of getting a set of these alarms . What colour led do you recommend for day time fishing ? I like the green , can these be seen during day light hours ? Cheers fella

[@MaffTUK]

Hello There Foghorn Leghorn Green is by far the brightest day or night, totally impressed with these alarms worth every penny, regards Matt

[@foghornleghornii5480]

Thanks for the reply ! 3 green ATT’s ordered. Let’s hope the fish illuminate them ! Cheers pal

[@sergeydzega5488]

what radius of action of a signal on the control panel. thanks

[@MaffTUK]

To be honest Sergy I don't know as that is always terrain governed, Ive tested it at 50 to 70 meters with no problem at all but that's too far off your rods. My buddy has had 100m test on his just to see if it would pick up and it did. The range is not a problem after 12 months use and I love them, I would not have any other alarm now. Sorry I could not be more technical for you, hope this helps regards Matt

[@jacobyoungoxfordcarpangler3832]

Hi, looking into a set of these are you still using them 👍

[@MaffTUK]

Yep still got them and I think they are great alarms these are still going strong. 👍regards Matt

[@jacobyoungoxfordcarpangler3832]

@@MaffTUK thanks for reply really close to changing my current alarms fed up with the poor battery life!

[@leroyboomtingbrown5699]

I’m not sure weather to get delks or these it’s a hard choice

[@MaffTUK]

Hello Leroy Boom Ting Brown, My mates delks never shut up always bipping or making some noise, I have these with just the two magnets on so they are not so sensitive to the weather and if i have to blank at least i do in in silence LOL Personally i love these alarms but if i had spent more cash I would probably say the same if i had bought Delks. I am very happy with these alarms and i don't feel the need or even want to change to anything else and they have never let me down and work perfect. I dont think you can go wrong with these. But ultimately its your call, you got to go with what you really want :-).... regards Matt

[@leroyboomtingbrown5699]

Maff T UK Gardner it is then thank you

[@JamesWilson-vl2gx]

great video! can I ask how you stuck the isotopes into the ears on the alarms? I haven't got round to doing that yet and any help would be very much appreciated. ..thanks

[@MaffTUK]

Hello Jasper No problem, I simply used a small amount of clear silicone. the same stuff folk use to seal in and around the bathroom make sure its clear and use a sharppend match or something to put the silicone in the small hole. push the isotope in and wipe off any over spill... thanks for the comment regards Maff

[@JamesWilson-vl2gx]

Excellent thanks for the swift reply
