I mainly fish freshwater, and I'm sure somebody else with more saltwater experience than I will chime in with further information.
However, for salt water fishing, you generally will use heavier rods, reels, and line than you will use for freshwater. I have found that generally saltwater fishing involves more live bait and less artificial bait use as well. The bait used depends on the species you are going after, however I have used shiners in salt water before.
I don't believe either are easy.
Anyhow, welcome to BFT.
