Saltwater fishing reels are prone to various issues due to exposure to harsh conditions. Some common problems include corrosion, line twist, drag issues, and reel malfunctions. To prevent corrosion, rinse your reel with fresh water after each use and apply a corrosion inhibitor. To avoid line twist, make sure your line is spooled correctly and use a swivel when necessary. If you experience drag issues, check the drag system for dirt or debris and lubricate it regularly. In case of reel malfunctions, such as grinding or sticking, disassemble the reel carefully, clean all parts, and reassemble following the manufacturer's instructions. Regular maintenance and proper storage are key to preventing these problems.
