T&T: line cutting and nets

[Scott E. Bulger]

On the W coast of Mexico, El Salvador and Costa Rica long line fishing is
very common.  We ran across 1 line, but cut it when it hung up on our
stabilizers.  We were very, very lucky.  There were at least a dozen times
we had to alter course to snake our way through the lines.  Most of this was
at night and it was very stressful.
