opening up pool and spa, drain plug questions

[meestahmarc]

Hi - when I open the pool are there plugs that need to be removed from the drains? I removed the plugs from the jets, skimmer, pump, etc. all is running good. But I did not remove anything from the spa section or main drain. i can see in the spa section there are those plugs with the equal sign on them, is there a tool to get in and open that up without having to go into the murky swamp water. thanks.

Just have to reach in and use the equal signs as a handle to unscrew the plugs.
