multi-strand line

multi-strand line
a bundle of very fine fibres comprising a fishing line. The hooklength spreads out in water to become almost invisible and is soft to touch on the lips of fishes. However it may tangle and water soluble glues can be used to keep the strand together until the rig is cast into the water when it dissolves away
