 I'll whip the ends with electrical tape but what particular knot would
 you use, given my application ?
 
 Gratefully,

 When I worked in the GOM for a diving contractor we used that
 yellow/oranag poly often for attaching a bouy to a pipe.The stuff is
 very slippery. The constant motion of the sea will work harder than a
 raccoon to undo most any knot with great success. There are two knots
 that I have used for poly in the water:
 
 1) The Poly Knot, to make an eye with braded or three strand.
 2) West Coast Dungi Crabber's Bouy Knot, to attach two bitter ends of
 similar size three strand poly.
 
 Would you like instructions?
 Bob
