saltwater reel

[jim202000]

[font "Times New Roman"]I have a Ross Flystart 4. The Ross website says it will handle all fresh water / warm water / and light salt fishing conditions. In short what I want to know is can I use that reel for “schoolie” stripers on an 8wt rod? I don’t want to kill my reel (I know it is not really all that good but still) and I don’t really understand what is needed for a saltwater reel. All I know is that a freshwater reel, as I understand it, will not hold up in the salt ( thought I don’t really know why.) [/font]

[font "Times New Roman"]So any how [/font]
[font "Times New Roman"]Ross Flystart 4 = saltwater for stripers [cool][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"]OR[/font]
[font "Times New Roman"]Flystart 4 + satwater + small striper = bad day / broken reel [frown][/font]

[font "Times New Roman"]thanks for your help [/font]
