The purpose of this study is the improvement of the existing trolling hauler, which has only one wheel to wind a main line, for saving man power around the coast of Jeju island. The trolling hauler manufactured for a test performance consisted of the wheel part of a main line and the roller part of a leader line including labor-saving devices comprised of a friction clutch, a fastener and springs. Even though this existing electric hauler system is convenient to control the wheel speed and the winding direction, it is apt to cost high and to corrode quickly at sea. Therefore, to remove these negative elements and to operate rollers for hoisting a leader line of the trolling, hydraulic motors were used separately. As a result, according to using of labor-saving devices, the towing tension occurred in operating in fishing ground could be selected moderately without breaking of lines and the operating efficiency of the trolling hauler was verified.
