mostly plastic outside; not sure of the innards. haven't used in salt water. wouldn't be afraid to for the price. should be able to rinse or dunk in tap water after use which i think u should do after salt. i think most fly tackle can take submersing with no bad effects. good luck and good fishing.

yes but after a year or so it fell apart... I would recommend going on l.l bean and looking at their rods cause there are a few inexpensive better made rods.... but they will start around 250 for a whole set up...

No, it can't be used for salt water. Desalination is a much more complicated process that can't be achieved in a device of this size or at this cost. You'd want to follow methods describe online (in an emergency situation) to get the salt content removed from the water first. Then use this product to drink with to remove the impurities.

It can. But it is not recomended. If used in saltwater you should remove the propeller and the shaft. Use a pipe cleaner inside the shaft housing. Then reoil with white litheom grease. Alot of work, but if you don t do this after a saltwater run. It will rust a the shaft will seize up. I trashed one in saltwater. I no longer run in saltwater at all.

With the correct saltwater system yes. And as a user of salt water I would recommend it, have not used chemicals in two years.

I do not know. My pool is not a salt water pool. The item in question is very nice and worked well.

I would say yes. I use it in a salt water swimming pool, but have not used it in the ocean. The device is sealed and should not let in any water, salt or otherwise. If you are worried about effect of salt remaining on the surface and drying out there, wash it off after use. Additionally, the instructions coming with the device do not contraindicate use in salt water.

I have never used it in salt water, I suppose it could be used, my first thought would be the same as fishing reels. When I use rods and reels in salt water I always make an effort to clean and flush with fresh water prior to storing them. The metal frame would certainly be exposed to salt water, and would rust if neglected. The pontoons would fair much better, but would clean them as well after use in salt water.

Yes, but it would probably not be very beneficial if the surface is always touching salt water. This product is just a very heavy exterior coat, but not actually "permanent".

This is designed for salt water - will work in fresh. Would not recommend trying a free water model in salt...

I can't see any reason why it wouldn't be safe to use in salt water. It is a totally sealed unit. I am running mine in a tank with anti-freeze in it.If you know anything about anti-freeze and plastics, it tends to get thru any low quality seal. I have had no problems in that area. Tank seals leak, but not the pump.Hope this helps.

I am not using it for salt water. I don,t think in respect at the way it is built that it would perform well for a long time in salt water. But for my use it is a very good reel.

Yes, you can certainly use our waterproof products in salt water! The only thing we suggest is to rinse the iPod off with fresh water after each use in salt water so there isn't any salt built up in the headphone jack.-Underwater Audio Customer Service

We bought ours to use in salt water, we have only had it three months, so far so good.

I don't see why not as it is a really heavy duty cast iron pump. Unless there is something about salt water I'm not aware of.

I do not know. I do not have a salt water pool. It would be best to ask the manufacturer. I was well pleased with the item.

Probably not. It's a baitcaster, so when first learning, line is easily tangled on the reel. A spinning combo is much easier, and plenty of fisherman stay with them forever. Will he fish in the ocean? Then he needs it to be designed for use in salt water.

I have it hooked up to a 1 HP motor and have an Ionizer system to help reduce the need of chorine. Do not think there should be any problem using salt water as the tubing is plastic and will not oxidize. Have not filled the started the heater as yet, as I am stilling in the finishing stages. Am pumped about the system; will inform once it is operational and am swimming in upstream in warm water.
