I’m I the only one that didn’t know this?

When fishing in saltwater, I clean my line after every use. As soon as I get home ( 5 min from the beach), I strip all the line/running line out through the guides onto the driveway, then turn the hose onto the line, rod guides, etc and slosh the rod/reel in a 5 gal bucket of water, I grip the line with a dry cloth as I wind it back on the reel...takes me all of 5 min, and I've never had a problem with corrosion.
Once/year I rinse all my lines in warm, mild soapy water (not detergent...I don't want to remove the existing lubricants), wipe dry and dress with line dressing.

soap and water, rinse, dry, and then spray this on, let dry for a few and pull through a soft rag to remove excess. Pretty much use this on everythng...wife stops me however, if she finds me sneaking up on her with it.

I use this as well, it certainly keeps lines slick. Sometimes when I'm fishing a particularly dirty lake even a line that was clean may start to sink. I don't like the tip of my floating fly line sinking when I'm bobber fishing: Mucilin works well to fix this on lake sinking floating line.
