Is the AHE utility line too slippery for half hitch? 2 even 3 half hitches are not enough to stop it slipping. Is it absolutely needed i half hitch everything together? The tree i tried it on is big so my line gave me a big V so it is harder to half hitch the two braid together (clear enough?)
Another stopping knot would be better?
Thanks!
