Handline fishing, or handlining, is a fishing technique where a single fishing line is held in the hands. A handline is a relatively large diameter line that can be pulled by hand, and it has a jig attached at the end. Handlines are frequently used for catching fish or squid that are schooling near the surface, thus a long haul by hand is not necessary.
| Dataset Name | PI-Supplied Description | PI-Supplied Name |
|---|---|---|
| Amino acid compound-specific isotope analysis (AA-CSIA) of tissue samples from four distinct trophic groups across the food web in the pelagic eastern tropical Pacific Ocean; samples collected on NOAA cruises from July to December 2006 | Specimens of the squids Dosidicus gigas (Dg) and Sthenoteuthis oualaniensis (So) also were collected at night, using handlines and jigs. | handlines and jigs |
| Bulk raw isotopic data from tissue samples from non-tuna species collected in the eastern tropical Pacific Ocean onboard two NOAA research ships, David Starr Jordan and McArthur II, (cruises SWFSC1630 and SWFSC1631) in 2006 | Specimens of the squids Dosidicus gigas (Dg) and Sthenoteuthis oualaniensis (So) were collected at night, using handlines and jigs. | handlines and jigs |
