Anyone have a line on line? :D I have a Dive Rite primary reel w/24# for cave & it has a single strand fray. I have called DR yet. Thought I'd ask here 1st.

Thanks Roakey. I should have asked Bill yesterday when I was @ Cave Excursions (http://www.sidemount.com) & I forgot all about it.

I have a big spool of line I bought from them a while back to rewind a spool...I think it was like $16 for 800' or something...

What gage was that O-ring? That sound like a decent price.

I think I bought the #24 cave line...they carry a range of different types though. Let me make sure I understand...you are looking for just bulk line to rewind a reel, right? You already have the reel/spool and just want replacement line?

That's correct. I have reel, but can't travel w/o line. 24#

I have always bought my braided nylon lines from Kmart, Walmart, or a local hardware.....Worked fine for many years and hundreds of dives!

In all cases that I've seen those are twisted lines, not braided. There are exceptions, but they're few and far between.
