A: 
Lines are dependent on what you want them to do, and for how long.

This line will work for your basic question, but keep in mind, it is an entry level line so you shouldn't expect it to perform very well, or for very long.

In the world of fly lines, the old adage holds true, "You get what you pay for".

A: 
You could use it for SW, but it will not last very long. The corrosive salt will degrade the finish of the line and make it tacky, then lead to loss of suppleness and casting ability.

If you want a line to use in SW only a handful of lines, but don't want to pay much for it, look at an auction site for some.

Staff Answer
A: 
Line weight
Fly fishing line weight is ranked from 1 to 15, with 1 being the lightest and 15 the heaviest
Lighter lines are suited for delicate presentations and for casting light flies
Heavier lines are best for casting large, wind-resistant and heavy flies
Line weight is the easiest to select since this should be matched to your rod and reel
Fly fishing requires a balanced system so match the reel and rod. If you don't, you will hurt your casting accuracy and efficiency.
A 5 weight reel matches up with a 5 weight rod, so it follows that you should select a 5 weight line
Some manufacturers give a leeway by saying you can go one above or below this, say a 4 weight or 6 weight line with a 5 weight reel and rod. If you want to be safe, though, match the line, rod and reel exactly.
Your fly fishing line weight should also be selected based on the fish you want to catch
You'll need line weights from 1 to 7 lbs for lighter fish such as panfish and most trout
Bass need a little heavier weight, from 7 to 9 lbs
Larger freshwater and saltwater fish take the heaviest lines--an 8 to 15 lbs
