| The last time I was in Bass Pro the salesmen was not only talking about brands but which models was actually built for saltwater. I emailed Okuma and Shimano a couple of days ago and received the responses below. Most of Okuma's reels are OK to use in saltwater, however, there are a few that are specifically designed for that application...
The Salina is a new reel for 2007. It has high-density, stainless steel gearing, which helps with corrosion resistance.
The Coronado also has the stainless steel gearing, but includes a baitfeeder function.
The Axeon & Oryx are surf-fishing reels.
Wishing you good fishing,

Thunnus, Baitrunner and Spheros reels are all designed for salt water use.
