KNOTS
Fisherman's Knot
The fisherman's knot is used for joining two fine lines such as fishing leaders.
It is simply two overhand knots, one holding the right-hand line, and the the other
the left-hand line. Pull each of the two overhand knots taut separately. Then make
the whole knot taut so the two overhand knots come together by pulling on the
standing parts of each line.
Miller's Knot
This is a close relative of the clove hitch and is used in tying sacks with
heavy string or cord. Note that the first turn around the sack leads over the
forefinger and the others pass under all fingers.
Double Carrick Bend
The double carrick bend is used for joining 2 very thick ropes at the end,
usually used by towboats to tow large cargo ships. the ends should be tied
together.
