What is long-line fishing?
88697
Is a long line with buyes, every 100 yards or so, a small line with a hook and bait is atached.\nUsually is several miles long.\nThe boats leave it for a day and return to check what is been hooked. Usualy marlins and sharks, but can be anything.\nIt is not a selective method for fishing, and is prohibited in many countries.

I was on the pier fishing on the bottom. If you fish you know that you have to keep the line tight so you can feel a fish when he bites. Suddenly a bird flew around us who were fishing ,hovered over my line and landed on it, kinda like on a clothes line.It continued to set there long enough for a man to take 4 flash pictures,it was nightime, then the bird flew away and I turned to ask the man to send me a copy of the pictures but he was gone also.Just that quick.

You run the fishing line through the straws.  Tape the straws together loosely with the duct tape.\n\nYou can then control finger movement by tugging on the lines.

It sounds like you're going to be doing salt water fishing.  I'd suggest you get a rig with a heavy weight - like a 7 oz (it's shaped like a pyramid), and attach it to a rig that has 2 leaders, each with a small, single hook.  Bait the rig with blood worms, and fish it off the bottom.  You'll catch all kinds of stuff.  This time of year, you should be able to catch a bunch of croaker up there, maybe even some rockfish.

In clear water, with a blue sky overhead, try a fairly dark coloured plug or jerkbait, along the lines of those you would use pike fishing. You can also try spinners, no particular kind, as they all work well on the right day. Just have a small selection of different colours and sizes. I prefer the mepps super vibrax, or the rublex ondex in sizes 4 - 6. Harris angling sell them for about £3 each, and there indesructable.\n\nIn overcast and cloudy water conditions, use the same types of lures and spinners, but opt for the ones with brighter colours. Tight lines

Have known some poachers, but never heard of a `bont `line. It can only be a netting system , or a form of snare, of which there are several types. If the book is current, the publisher will often pass readers letters on to their authors.    " A Poachers Tale"  by Fred Speakman. is available secondhand on the web - 1960`s - Alf Curtis , last of the great poachers - great book, bestseller in its day.

I love going out on chartered fishing trips in the ocean, in fact last weekend I caught the biggest fish(small shark) and I won the jack pot. Fishing from the bank is so boring now.

There are too many ways to list, but in addition to the other 2 responses above mine, you can put them on a leadhead jig, and jig them on the bottom. Try tying a palomer knot, and on the tag end tye on another hook, and rig 2 flukes this way.  You can also get a threeway swivel, and rig two at the same time, make one of the lines atleast 6 inches longer than the other though..  Start off with two different colors, and which ever one catches more is the one you use on both hooks.  That rig kills the smallies in my area.   I prefer using the threeway swivel.  I have also caught largemouth using this rig.  And you can catch bass, as well as trout using the jig method.  Here's a few articles about fluke fishing. Although the first one talks about parasites.  Have fun, and tight lines.

I know you need a license not for a rod and line but to fish. you should check with your local natural resources offic. it depends where you are fishing.

All good answers above, but the line has to come off the spool of line in the same direction it goes on reel or you will get a terrible line twist!!! If you don't understand what I'm saying, check with local sporting goods store(Academy), they can show you. Good fishing!!!

To me that sounds like BIG GAME Trolling for species such as "Marlin", "Sailfish", "Tuna" + Dorado (Dolphin Fish / Mahi Mahi), and the occasional shark. Also perhaps when fishing stationery for Tarpon.\nSo, basically larger tropical saltwater species.
