Long-liner
The long-liner fishing vessel is a commercial type of fishing vessel, used for catching various types of larger species, often in Arctic and Antarctic waters. The long-liner vessel can be in all sizes, from 25-65 meters, depending on the species it is used for. The long-liner operates by setting a long line of hooks with bait on, from the stern of the vessel. The line can either be mid-water or bottom longline depending on the type of species. The long-line can be up to 10 kilometers with 70.000 hooks. Many new long-liners use an autoline system, where the line is set automatically.
Tuna long-liner
In the tuna industry, the long-liner vessel is widely used. Tuna long-liners often have freezing systems, as Tuna needs to be frozen quickly after it has been caught. In the pacific waters, this is a very common method of catching different kinds of tuna species.
