under-running

under-running
the process of hauling in a net over the bow of the boat and, e.g. with a longline, removing fish, and re-baiting and re-setting the line. When this was done by fishermen from a dory, a 1.5 km line was set, with a fish caught every tenth to fifteenth hook, and the line was pulled and set three or four times a day
