CONT

La palangre de fond est utilisée par les pêcheurs professionnels pour capturer de nombreuses espèces, comme le merlan, le merlu, le congre, la dorade ou le bar. Cet engin est constitué d'une ligne principale, appelée «maîtresse» ou «ligne mère», sur laquelle sont fixés, à intervalles réguliers, des bas de lignes, ou «avançons», terminés chacun par un hameçon. Les extrémités de la ligne mère sont raccordées par des agrafes à des orins reliés à un lest dans leur partie inférieure et à une bouée de signalisation dans leur partie supérieure.
