forty yards in length. The lines employed 

 should be even and well twisted, and before 

 being used should be well straightened and 

 rubbed along with a piece of coarse canvas, 

 moistened with linseed oil. The line may be 

 straightened by fastening one end to a quart 



bottle, well corked, lowering it astern, when 

 the vessel is under way, fastening the other end 

 on board. Nos. 1, 2, 3 are snoudings, useful 

 for the capture of moderately sized fish ; 4, 5 

 for larger fish. Snouding is the line from the 

 lead to the hook.
