| Saltwater Fly |
Saltwater fly-fishing need not be com-plicated or expen-sive. Trout gear can always be tested out on an obliging school of kahawai down at the river-mouth. This is great fun - even if most of the blighters seem to toss the hook after a jump or two. Trout gear, particularly reels, must be carefully flushed with freshwater and sprayed with penetrating oil after even the slightest exposure to salt spray or the corro-sive effect will be ugly and almost instant.
