Have you ever arrived at the put-in late because you had to keep pulling off the side of the road to re-tie your boats? Or perhaps you have been at the side of the river, with your canoe jammed against a log, sinking fast, and that granny knot just wasn't doing the trick? For the paddler, this book teaches eighteen knots and their uses on and off the river. From the simple figure eight to the reliable fisherman's knot, these knots will help keep you out of trouble.
