Abstract
Abstract A fishing net having a high specific gravity prepared by netting monofilaments of a hollow thermoplastic synthetic resin sheath containing spaced-apart fiber segments of a metal or a metal alloy. The segments have a high specific gravity, such as in lead or lead alloys, and are enclosed therein as the core, or twines of such monofilaments. Voids are located within the sheath between adjacent ends of the segments. The net may also comprise compound twines consisting of the foregoing monofilaments and monofilaments of natural or chemical fibers.
