ABSTRACT:
A longline assembly includes an elongated main longline element, a plurality of longitudinally spaced gangion lines attached to the longline element, and a plurality of hooks on the outer extremities of the gangion lines. The gangion lines each include a monofilament core element and a braided outer casing which is formed in a tight solid braid pattern over the core element to firmly secure the outer casing to the core element. The core elements add preselected degrees of stiffness to the gangion lines to maintain them in substantially outwardly extended relation to the longline element during fishing operations, and the outer casings provide improved surface characteristics which facilitate handling and knotting or otherwise terminating of the gangion lines.
