SMB Deployment: Reel or Spool

[TheRedHead]

Do you tie your SMB or lift bag to a reel or a spool?

 

[HarleyDiver]

Are you a spooler or a reeler?

Spool for SMB, almost impossible to foul.

Spool, a stainless spool. Trying to learn the yo-yo tricks so I can wow Dennis
yes, it has gotten competitive I'm afraid.

spool - more compact in addition to its non-tanglin' benefits.

I too am a spool kinda girl. I also prefer it as it is smaller and nothing to foul - but I think I said that elsewhere too!

 

[dherbman]

Delrin spool.

Here's an extra credit question: Do you loop your SMB to the spool or reel to do you attach it with some sort of clip?

 

[Cacia]

both, looped on an then use a two-way through the hole in the spool and the d-ring.

All depend of the kind of dive. Spool are great for shallow dives but it kind of hard, well actually impossible to deployed from deeper water with a Spool because they don't make spool large enough, it would also be impartical. I do keep my Spool and SMB together, when using a reel I keep them separate.
