Skeater Deadbait Alarm
Product Information
The Skeater Deadbait Alarm gives bite indication with drop-back detection and storm resistance for specimen fishing in changing conditions. Volume, tone and sensitivity can each be adjusted, with a silent volume setting when required.
A 30-second mute function keeps rig set-up silent, while the latching LED remains lit for 20 seconds after an alert. The alarm has a low-battery warning and retains its settings after it has been powered off.
It runs from one 9V battery, which is not included. Detachable snag ears come supplied, and an optional night-light function and extension-box socket add further functions to the alarm.
