SantaFeSandy I apologize for my lack of detail.
Yes of course the reel such as yours, and mine have a handle and a mechanism for rewinding the line onto the reel.
The spool has niethet handle nor mechanism for rewinding line. What I was driving at was I find spools very handy for many things and I normally carry a couple on all my dives, for say running a line from a mooring block to a wreck if required in low vis.
A strobe is a bright blinking light that I also carry on dives that I will use to mark the mooring block, and to mark the line from the mooring block to the wreck so in low vis there are some references to find your way back to the line if needed.
I hope this clarifies what I was describing.
