salt water fishing is when you go fishing in saltwater. Saltwater fishing is how hard you make it, you can cast out 10 feet or go 5 miles off shore and reel in a 4 foot yellow fin tuna.If you go salt water fishing it will be like fishing in a lake or pond but if you go out far the fish will be bigger.I have never been salt water fishing in a boat but from what I have seen you will probaly want to use a boat with line holders and castout and from there just wait or drive the boat to make it look like the bait is real.When trolling you want to go the speed that the lure would go if it was real.
