Frank,
The *jon* line was invented by a east coast wreck diver named Jon something or nother.. I posted it in the past but his last name escapes me right now..
I no longer use Jon lines inasmuch as it is simply easier to use my spool. By using the spool you have one piece of equipment serving more than one purpose and furthermore in big swells or when there are several teams on the line I can let out as much as 100' should I want.. I generally let out about 10' or so and have never really had an occasion to let out more than that, but it's there if I need it and I don't need the jon line..
Later
