What knot to do

Post by Big Daddy D » Wed Jan 06, 2010 3:32 pm

With temps dipping into the single digits this weekend, it might be the perfect time to refresh your knot tying by the fire.

Maybe you've seen this site before, but I stumbled across this website and it has animated knot-tying to show you exactly how to tie most any knot. It has knots for boating, climbing, search and rescue and more. It's very cool.

http://www.animatedknots.com/index.php? ... dknots.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

It'll keep you fingers warm.

And remember, the best way to untie a frozen knot is with a blowtorch.

Since many of us don't carry blow-torches (unlike you apparently fishie) I always recommend the ol' "chug a pot of coffee and let nature do the work" method. Unfreezes my knots every time! Although it leaves my hands smelling odd sometimes. Anybody know what that's about?

Zach I don't think the Canoe Club message board is the right venue to admit that you have a fetish for peeing on yourself.

Wrong that Zach may enjoy peeing on himself or that the Canoe Club is the place to admit to it?

I'm pretty sure Zach just pees on his hands to build calouses. He never wears a glove anymore because his hands are all leathery, not soft new leather, but the old nasty leather you find on a dead cow.
