Why does inshore need a different specification from freshwater?
Short answer
Corrosion and scent. Saltwater hardware needs a named salt-spray standard, and inshore anglers are reported to choose artificial baits partly on scent, because they are competing with live bait.
In detail
Neither line appears in a freshwater specification.
