Would this be O.K. for salt water fishing in Marina's and along the coast line in kelp beds etc?

I take mine in the Gulf of Mexico to fish and no matter if the conditions are flat calm to 2 1/2ft seas with constantly shifting winds mild to gusty, in the marshes, skinny waters with oyster beds, muck and rock, I'm confident in the way this little vessel handles out there. Google Earth is a good tool to use before you go out, to find out the what the waters are like. Pay attention to the weather and use common sense in regards to conditions, your abilities and comfort zone. The kayak should get you there and back w/out incident.

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. I have been using this light for flounder gigging in saltwater for many years.

I use it exclusively for freshwater but it could be used for light saltwater - 20 lb test line.

I have this installed for my fresh water wash down option on my 21' Seapro...It worked in a Salt Water environment all last season but I don't know about its actual use for saltwater.

I don't know if it can be used as a flotation device in the ocean. I have never submerged it in salt water. I don't think I would buy it or use it for that purpose at the risk of damaging it when proper flotation devices could be purchased for much cheaper.

Personally i don't think this knife is meant to be taken into salt water. You probably could, but i think there are better options out there.

This rod is for inshore salt water application. I have it matched with daiwa 300 low profile reel for bottom fishing at Caribbean when we had no luck for trolling for marlin. Quite good for grouper. It is too heavy for bass fishing, I believe.

This is much to light of a set up for most any salt water fishing. It's Ment for fishing streams for trout or bass.

I see no reason why this unit could not be used in salt water. I am not for sure if maps for some salt water area's is loaded but I know you can get a card and load them into unit. It does come with transducer and the GPS reads your speed, it is very accurate.

I use this food for salt water fish so I think it would be better to check with a pet store. Sorry.

It is not designed for salt water so you will need to rinse it off with fresh water after every use. They are definitely strong enough to handle the fish you are after.

I bought the 11' rod for salt water surf casting. Personally, I would NOT want to use this rod for fresh water (constant) casting. It's a very nice rod, and if you are used to using one that size, you might like this one.

I don't see why you couldn't use it for saltwater. Should work as it is inert. I'm not a saltie- expert though, mind you.There are some substrates out there that will buffer the water better for saltwater. Saltwater requires a higher pH and a higher GH/KH. Using an inert substrate won't hurt your fish or alter the chemistry of the water- but won't provide any buffering for pH swings etc. As fish "pee" and "life-happens" the pH of the water will change slightly between water changes. You will usually be better off for saltwater with a buffered substrate... but this wouldn't be bad. I don't see why you couldn't use it for saltwater. Should work as it is inert.

In my opinion, it is a little light duty for salt water, and these fish... More of a "Brookie" type of reel.. I use mine for Bass, and sunfish ...

I use my reel in fresh water and catch pan fish I can't really speak about salt water sorry. The reel is smooth and the drag is good.

It would be great from the pier and in the surf if you are fishing in the water. It is kind of short to keep the waves from slapping your line. In all honesty it would be best suited for the boat. Hope this helps.
