My reels are always in the ocean. and just hose them down at the end of the day and spray WD40 and when surf launching put them inside if it looks iffy.:D

Rinse it with fresh water, let it dry. If it seems to be working fine and the drag is decently smooth- no worries. When you let it dry, back off the drag so any water trapped in the drag washers can evaporate.

Good luck next time you head out :cheers1:

Thanks Stevo

wipe out...
 
Well I'm sorry you wiped out, but it sounds like you fared well overall. Your'e safe and that is the main thing. I have tried twice launching at LJ. The first time was better than the second, but I got wet both times. I have yet to try again. It's been about a month since I've tried. Tryin to work up the courage. The good thing was my stuff seemed to be well secured, the only thing I lost was a box full of heavy and surface irons. I guess I better get out there. I WILL NOT catch a YT in the bay, that is for sure! Good luck to you and go get em!
