Default salt water.....

good long distance. ( unless the running line tangles or you step on it
;-)



A stripping apron or better yet ( in a boat) basket is more than worth the
$$

The best I've ever used was basically a dish pan with truncated cones on the
bottom ... maybe an Orvis product?

I have a mesh apron supported by a belt that is "OK" but is hard to hit when
stripping fast and doesn't prevent tangles any where near as well as the
cone dealies

If i were planning a "cast, strip, cast, strip, cast, strip, cast, strip" -
trip I would certainly take shooting heads and get a cone style
stripping basket, the efficiency of the combination would add up to LOTS of
extra "fly in the water, actually fishing" time over a day
