I wouldn't mate. You need the internal workings to be completely enclosed. Preventing corrosion and even sand from getting in there.

Type one of the following into yahoo/google
+"fly reel" +saltwater
Or
+"fly reel" +corrosion
You should find something.
I do find it helps if you also add
+UK
Here's what I found

Google/yahoo tips: + means only give me docs with this word in it. Without + and you will get partial matches. Words in inverted commas means you want to match that fraise exactly. - means don't give me any docs with this word in it. For example: I wanted to find a web page about "flounder fishing" in either UK or Ireland from shore not boat. +"flounder fishing" UK OR IRELAND +shore -boat
