So what do you reckon? You cast out, you set your rod on your pod, should your alarms be on or off whilst you fiddle with the tension and set your indicators? Personally it REALLY annoys me  when people have the volume turned up high, cast out and mess around with their rods with their opti's blasting out full volume until they're finally happy.  I reckon you should make all your adjustments then turn your alarm on  |

I allways turn mine off and sometimes leave them off until night time and sit and watch my rod tips, though of late I seem to be the local tea stop and all and sundry visit my swim so have to have them turned on but kept low, it is so anti social when these anglers leave theirs on while setting up etc.
