Dive Reels: Your Guideline for Exploration and Signaling
For deploying longer lengths of line in overhead environments or for specific underwater tasks like deploying a surface marker buoy, dive reels are a fundamental piece of equipment. These handled devices are designed for controlled line management, which is critical for navigation in caves and wrecks, or for sending up a marker from depth.
A dive reel typically features a spool capable of holding a significant amount of line, a winding handle for retrieval, and a locking mechanism to manage line tension and prevent unwanted free-spooling. Their design allows for methodical laying and recovery of your guideline.
Primary Uses for Dive Reels:
- Overhead Navigation: Establishing main guidelines during cave or wreck penetration is a primary function.
- Surface Marker Buoy (SMB) / Lift Bag Deployment: Sending up signaling or lifting devices from deeper stops.
- Search Operations: Conducting systematic underwater searches requires controlled line deployment.
- Jump & Gap Lines: In some technical diving, reels may be used for longer jumps (though spools are also common for shorter ones).
In this category, you'll find dive reels from various manufacturers. Look for options with different line capacities (e.g., from 100 feet / 30 meters to several hundred feet / over 100 meters), constructed from materials suited for demanding use, and offering features such as ratcheting mechanisms or specific grip designs to suit your particular diving requirements.
