It would be great for trout fishing. Your line and pole would be the biggest difference for using this reel. I use it for light saltwater fishing and would def use it for some trout back at home.

I use mine only in saltwater, rinse with water when day is over, Great reel.

Yes, it rod has a standard mount which should accept most salt-water trolling reels. I don't know if your reel has a rod clamp, but I definitely would recommend using a clamp to fasten the reel more securely and prevent any wiggling.

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.

Depending on your target fish. Personally this is too thick for surf fishing. I bought it for yellowtail and Dorado fishing. Shipping is from China so it will take a few weeks!

Sorry, I cannot help you. I have never used these lures in deep salt water. I have only used them in brackish (sp?) water and I have never caught anything on them. So sorry. . .. . .

For me? ABF-90 is perfect for deep sea fishing. Most of my catch over 30lb and up, Cobia, Bull Red, Black drum, Black grouper, King Mac. Never have any problem with it. Just taking good care of it after the end each trip. Like; wash the salt water off and oil it

Yes, but wash your rod after each salt water fishing trip to give these longer life.

Sorry to say, but this is a strong reel meant for Marine Fishing. Put some strong line on it and go after the big fish ! Keith S.

Yes it is a good mobile fishing rod for lakes, creeks, or any place you see might have a bass or catfish in it. I would not use it in salt water for larger fish though. I have had no problems with it in the lakes I have fished and caught several bass, crappie, and catfish on it.

Probably not. It's my understanding that salt water reels are generally bigger and strong enough you could tow a car if you set the drag high enough. This reel, while great, has a plastic spool and plastic gears inside so I would not trust it with some of the larger stronger salt water fish. I wouldn't be concerned about saltwater touching the reel itself because sure, you could just rinse it off, but I have also gotten sand in this thing and it has been fine so that isn't the issue, it's that this reel is not strong enough to handle ocean fish.

Thats what I bought it for and it works great. As with anything used in salt water, be sure to rinse it good with clean water at the end of the day. I have thrown lures as heavy as 7ozs. and the rod performs well.
