Default knots that'll stay tied using poly rope ?

We use poly rope for stern tying up in Desolation Sound. I use the
same knots for any given application that I would use for other lines
except that I tape the bitter end off with electrical tape because poly
does have a habit for coming undone?

Yes. Leave longer tails than normal and tape them.
