Knots by an old salt dog.
How
I figure the crab trap will work,
is this: your float ties on with a round turn
and three half hitches--the extra is just for show.
I'm no go when it comes to the Flemish Blend,
the Sailor's Whipping, the Sheepshank, the Ashley Stopper, the Sinnet
Chain,
the Taut or Bunt Line Hitch; I forget all of these,
but I've still got the bowline, with the crocodile coming out the water,
round the tree, and back down around.
Would you like one
now?
