Scuba Diving is one of the most exhilarating sports that defies our physical makeup and allows us to explore a new world that most people do not experience. However, safety must be a key concern for all divers therefore having a dive reel for any wreck or cave explorations is necessary. Our ABS reels include a high visibility neon yellow line (multiple lengths) with a double branded brass hook for easy clipping. Also check out our other kits including DiveSmart Yellow/Red 5ft and 6ft SMB kits and Dive Floats that all include finger spool feels and other features.

Cannot work as finger reel
Everything is of good quality, except it's design. The holes in the sides of the reel are triangular instead of round, making it impossible to rewind the cord with your fingertip.However, I was able to drill a tiny hole near the rim on one side and insert a piece of #14 bare copper wire which I then doubled over and twisted, thereby producing a short handle for winding in the rope. This handle can fold flat on the side of the reel when not in use. I do not use this reel underwater, but rather, I use it for ham radio field antennas.

Good reel - operator needs practice
The reel is lightweight and very functional, but a gloved hand may have some trouble with freely unrolling the reel as in an SMB deployment. The simple construction prevents tangling. I had to do some minor mods on it to attach to my BCD but they were quick and only required a couple of plastic wire ties. The real comes with a brass "suicide clip" and I would also recommend changing that out for a Nite-ize S-biner clip for faster deployment and less fumbling around underwater. I would strongly recommend this product if you need a spool only occasionally.
