I just bought a Shakespeare 7' freshwater one piece rod with line capacity of 6-20lbs. I normally fish for panfish off the piers in saltwater. Do you think I'll have any problems with the rod since its a freshwater rod?

Shouldn't be a problem. Just hose off everything at day's end to get the salt off.

Thanks. I did notice a couple differences in the rods but I don't think they matter. Freshwater rod has smaller eyelets and metal attaching eyelets to rod. Also freshwater has shorter sensitivity tip.
