Long Line

long line is composed of a series of main rope and the rope buoy, where the main rope at a certain distance there are several branches of the short rope and a smaller diameter and at the end of the rope is tied to branches of the baited fishing line.
long line that is placed in the bottom waters are still within a certain period called the long line of Fixed or Bottom Long Line Long Line or Set is used to catch demersal fish (Figure 4.18). There is also a float Rawai called Dript Long Line used to catch pelagic fish.

Materials fishing lines can be made of monofilament (PA) or multifilament (PES such as terylene, or PA kuralon PVA such as nylon). Some differences of the two types of material terms of such technical
Multifilament materials heavier and expensive, easy assembly and more suitable for small ships;
Multifilament materials are more resistant and easy to handle, so that in the long term price is relatively lower; Monofilament smaller, delicate and transparent, so that in its use will provide a better catch.
The release of fishing line (setting) is done according to the menyerong line, or perpendicular to the flow. Release time depending on the number of basketball that will be installed, is expected early in the morning so the setting is completed on the morning when the fish is very jealous when looking for prey. The common bait used is a type of fish that have scales shiny, not quickly decay Berta has a strong framework is not easy to release when the fish struck.




Some types of fish used as bait including; Fish Milkfish, Saury fish, Fish tawes, ikn Bloating, - Fly fish and squid bait length ranges from 15-20 cm with a weight between 80-150 grams.
