Ok 15 miles. That is 79,200 feet.
This 65 pound test 500 yard fishing line weighs 5.6 ounces shipped. We'll be super generous and say half the wight is the spool and the carton. So 2.8 ounces per 500 yards, or 1,500 feet.
That would mean 79,200 feet of it would weigh 147.84 ounces, or 9.24 pounds.
So assuming he tied his knots well and the line didn't have any defects, he could possibly measure that distance with the fishing line. He would need a significant weight at the end, something probably > 5 pounds, to keep the line taunt and feel the bottom.
Unless there is some law that governs tensile strength that makes this invalid (probably is), he could at least measure it.
