Gear vs. Saltwater - Page 2 - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

After a day of fishing, i usually button down the drags and hose em off. I don't open the drags back up untill i shake the fresh water off. I always store them with the drag completely open.

Mostly have Daiwa and Shimano reels, have also had Newell and Penn in the past. Always cared for them the same, never had a breakdown becasue of corrosion.

I used to spray em with salt x, but found that was a waste of time and money.
