Mustad Autoline

Nearly two centuries ago, in a small Norwegian town, there was a man, who had a vision.
He envisioned a future, where fishing could be done more efficiently, and on a much larger scale.
This man, was Hans Mustad.
Today, Mustad Auto-line is a sixth generation family business based in Gjøvik, Norway, the perfect location to develop the world’s finest, automated longline fishing gear.
We work closely with clients throughout the lifetime of their gear, enabling us to fully understand their needs, and the conditions they face, to create the most innovative, and durable gear available.
In fact, the Mustad Auto-line Coastal System handles the entire fishing process, with minimal impact on the eco system.
Designed for vessels 30 feet, or longer, the system is tailored to each vessel, fully adjustable for seasonal fisheries.
Once the first buoys and anchors are thrown overboard, the Swivel-lines are pulled from storage magazines to the Mustad Coastal-Baiter.
The automatic baiting machine requires little space, and is designed around Mustad Autoline’s patented Roto-Baiter system, which baits up to three hooks per second, while maintaining accurate and efficient baiting, all under the operation of a single person.
The Mustad Auto-line Coastal Hauler pulls the lines in, while removing the fish through a hook cleaner, before entering Mustad Auto-line’s Hook-Separator SP tw0 thousand three.
With built in high pressure water jets, lines are cleaned and untangled, before the hooks are separated, allowing damaged ones to be repaired, or replaced, before being packed into magazines, and easily stored in a Coastal Mag-Packer system.
And with a global service network, 7 day parts delivery, and more than 700 systems sold, you can maintain peak performance.
Find your perfect fit with the industry leader.
Mustad Auto-line…a better way to fish!
