Marylander Posted June 5, 2012 Share Posted June 5, 2012 I recently found this site and it's really cool -- just basically a how-to site to tie all kinds of fishing, boating and climbing knots. I know it doesn't seem like a huge deal, but I was thinking if you had a kid it would be fun to teach them some of these (if you can tear 'em away from the video games for a while ). A lot of them have been really handy for me recently, too, on my sailboat. Best Fishing Knots and Rope Knots, animated and illustrated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mc2hill Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 I an not good at knots! I tried when I was a Scout, and even as a Scout leader. I have no idea why that rabbit went around the tree to get in the hole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no idea why that rabbit went around the tree to get in the hole. My late father tried for years to teach me how to tie a bowline. I just learned in 5 minutes. Rabbit, tree, what the...

Vink70 Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 my favorite to teach is bowline and the butterfly. I tie the butterfly 10x faster, and 10x better than the "old way" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
