Gratefully, Courtney 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 Yes, PLEASE ...:-) Thank you. |
