Answer: Don't know, I never dropped it. But I saw a video on YouTube (zoffinger's channel) where he dropped his for a second (with a fish hooked) and it did float.

Product reviews of Challenge 50282 Yo-Yo Hand Reel (Assorted Colors)
kenneth whitt : If you want light, cheap, flimsy this is perfect...lol
I used hand reals in the Caribbean as a kid many years ago. Those reals were thick, very strong rigid plastic.
This has plenty of sharp burs you can remove with sandpaper and a razor. Don't wind the sting up tight or you'll completely crush the thing. Useless for heavy line and cranking a big fish in. You'll crush the reel.
Dave Riopel : Cheap but outstanding!
So far I’m thoroughly impressed with this hand reel! It’s cheaply priced but the quality is nice. I did some modifications which took a couple minutes. I shaved down the mold line with a razor and cut 2 “line holders” in the back lip. I used electrical tape for the line seat. I then used 30lbs mono to a weight the tied 30lbs flouro to my bait. My initial casts in the yard were about 30 yards! You can stop the line with you thumb. Very excited to fish Curacao with these next week!
Amazon Customer : Works well for your hand line fishing.
I love it but thought it would have been a little bigger.
Francisco3 : ...
Happy with it good product
M : Over priced
Over priced.
Joseph H. : Four Stars
As good as the add
Yoyo yo : Simple, effective and disposable if I may say so
Nice simple / cheap gadget to fish, I been using these for 30+ years to fish from the coast/beach, on piers, from boats, kayaks, you name it. Whoever says you can't cast with it, well I am not going to argue, if you dont know and need a rod then that is what you need. I can throw the line pretty far out anytime, have caught saltwater fish of all kinds and sizes with them.
Not for kids of any age, is large for their hands even a small size yo-yo like this one, not at least until they know how to coordinate their movements / hands in sync properly as manual work is required to cast, retrieve the line, and know what to do when you hook a fish, a fishing rod is actually easier for a kid as also is harder to get the feel when a fish is just bitting.
If you like to think outside the box give it a try, I have never owned a fishing rod as I never really needed it.
NHR : Work great
Work great
weedeater64 : Much better than the 9" of same brand.
I'm not actually sure they are the same brand, they look nothing alike.
I recently ordered two of these and one in the 9" size. I received the 9" a couple days earlier and promptly gave a negative review. My first ever review. I thought it only fair to give a deserved positive review here.
The 6" looks nothing like the 9", happily. Never to sure about some of these things you get on places like Amazon. I'm not at all sure they are the same brand.
The 9" I received looked nothing like the picture or what I wanted, as well as being too small, smaller than a 9" of another brand.
These two 6" do however look just like the picture, and were pretty much what I was expecting and what I wanted. I will probably be getting a couple more, and I would definitely recommend them.
If anyone is wondering they will easily hold 250' of 30lb. mono line, probably over 300'.
Looking forward to bringing in some eater size catfish on these. Where I fish there is the possibility of hooking something much larger than eater, could be interesting.
If you're looking at these and not sure, go for it. I think you'll be happy.
Mark : it works
it is what it is....
East Coast : Good for the money
I am making up a few fishing kits that must fit in a shoe box. Obviously, a rod won't. Last year I just left it up to the recipient to figure out how to use the line, lures, hooks and so on; but I think this may make it easier. I will go ahead and affix the line to this for the recipient. A 9" yo-yo reel won't fit in the box, but this one will.
BTW, mine was orange. It seems sturdy enough for its purpose.
Amazon Customer : Works well for your hand line fishing.
I love it but thought it would have been a little bigger.
Brian Chee : Not just for fishing, I used them for fiber optic launch cables
Not using them for fishing line, I'm winding raw fiber optics on them to build my own fiber optic launch cables. So MUCH cheaper than spending $1400+ for a 1KM launch cable, but lots of work to fit onto a winder.
shane : Must have
Excellent product
Garrison : Four Stars
what I expected
Joel Clemons : Three Stars
The product I received is not what is pictured in the item description.
Qbancelli : Nice!
Great product. Affordable and good quality.
Jorge A Olarte : Five Stars
Good reel, great price!!!!!!!
Kai : Works just fine
If you don't have room for a fishing pole this is the ticket
Amazon Customer : Makes room in the fishing bag.
Great product. Now I don't have to tote around a big spool of line.
Kindle Customer : Useful gadget
Used this to drape my garden hose over to prevent kinks in my watering system. Worked great and was cheap.

Kerry Mac : A portable, cheap way to catch some fish - Great for travel!
You can put this anyway, tuck it away in your glove box, or put it in your carry-on, and then add some string, a weight, and a hook and voila, you're fishing! My husband always like to fish when we're on vacation, but when we fly there isn't room for his pole. In Puerto Vallarta we watched locals catching big fish, one after another, using one of these, and then walked all over downtown PV trying to find one for sale, but didn't. Happily, Amazon sells these, so I ordered one for my husband and my son.
