I’m sure you have though about it already, but if you had a way to modify the refractive index of the resin, you could make the fishing lines disappear completely.

On a similar line, I wonder if making it cylindrical would help reduce refraction when viewing at an angle?

The author mentions this, a cylinder shape causes a lot of optical deformation so it doesn't look as good.
