     We generally deploy these from the wreck to surface if we cannot get
     back to the shot line.We use tape in a bag rather than a reel and
     line, we find that tape never gets tangled and it can be deployed
     totally remote from the diver  meaning no possibility of being
     entangled and lifted by the buoy.

     Could I get some elaboration on this?  What kind of tape and how do you
     make sure this doesn't get tangled, i.e. how do you pack it?  Also, what
     means do you have of retrieving the mess that's attached to the wreck?
     Or is it just left there like garbage?  What do you do in strong current
     that can pull the sausage/buoy down?
