Burning the end of the line suggests a synthetic, like nylon or dacron. Natural fibers like cotton or linen wouldn't benefit from burning the end.
You can still get the old style braided fishing line - I think it was dacron. I don't think that's exactly what you describe, but braided dacron fishing line is used on cane poles by a lot of people.
