Longline Fishing Vessel
 

Longline fishing, or longlining, is a commercial fishing angling technique that uses a long main line with baited hooks attached at intervals via short branch lines. Longlines are classified mainly by where they are placed in the water column. This can be at the surface or at the bottom. Lines can also be set by means of an anchor, or left to drift. Hundreds or even thousands of baited hooks can hang from a single line. Longliners fishing vessels target mainly swordfish, tuna, and halibut.

The NORTHERN LEADER is the largest and most innovative commercial fishing longliner built in the U.S. in over 20 years. The longline fishing vessel employs advanced technology which substantially reduces fuel consumption such as 100% LED lighting and the Diesel Electric Power Management System that controls the vessel propulsion units and all other electrical demands.



This longline fishing model was commissioned by the curator of Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago in 2016. The fishing boat model is one of our three models that are permanently exhibited in a sealed glass at the museum. If you are a museum curator who wants the best models possible or a philanthropist who wants to donate a ship model to a museum, ModelShipMaster would be your natural choice.
