Sorry I'm gonna bug you all with questions since I did my course :D

Trident sell a fingerspool... can't find the link, only the full catalogue PDF, but it looks like this: Finger Spool reviews and discounts, ScubaToys

Luminous yellow braided line. Here in town I can get a 100ft for about $18 compared to the Cave shop's $50-60 for a similar length.

It sinks, it's really strong, and it comes with double ended brass clips... any reason why I shouldn't be using this for Jump Spools?

Anyone know this product, use it or have any opinions on it?

Cheers!

I'd upgrade to SS boltsnaps. Other than that, it should be fine for jumps.
 
Those work great for jump spools. I have a bunch of them. The brass will be fine in fresh water, but you may find they won't last long in salt. But you can get them with SS snaps at Cave Adventurers for the same price, just white instead of yellow line. They also have yellow line. I'll be there tomorrow and see what the price is for those.
