Today I set out to try my new bite alarm I got off eBay. I made a stand for it out of a PVC pipe and a threaded metal bar. I tested out the different settings and found out that they reset when it's shut off. That wasn't a big issue so I packed up and drove to longwood. The sun was out and my sunglasses helped me see in the water. Some kids were trying to catch fish with a net and a plastic container. It was funny watching them go in the water the try and net the fish. Then they made their way around the lake to me, and like all kids they say Hi and start asking questions. After 5 minutes I changed my setup and tries to catch them something so they woul go away. While I was doing this I heard beeping from my alarm and saw I had something. By the time I made my way back it stopped and lost whatever was one it. Though I didn't get anything it got me super excited to hear it go off. I put new bait on and cast it out once again. Some time passed and nothing happened, what a shock.
TL;DR
Tried new bite alarm, it went off, I didn't make it in time to set the hook.
