    The most comman use of the Fishermans Bend is to secure a rope to an anchor ring.

    Picture 1 - Carrick Bend
    Picture 2 - Bowline on the Bight
    Picture 3 - Parts of a Rope
    Picture 4 - A Round Turn and 2 Half Hitches and a Fishermans Bend - please note they are basically the same with the exception of the first hitch goes under the round turns in the Fishermans Bend.
    Picture 5 - A rolling Hitch both left and right handed pull - please note that some people teach and prefer if using man made fibre ropes the first bit do not cross but wrap around the object in question - the say it provides more friction with the slipary nature of the rope

    Fisherman's bend usually used for attaching an object, ie a hook or an anchor, Fisherman's knot for tying to another rope or line.
    If it don't fit, use a hammer to make it fit....
