Can we knot?

Bowline on a bite
Half hitch (Kinda a knot)
Square Knot
Clove Hitch (Not really a knot)
Running Bowline
I recently make a rope ladder out of bout 20 bowlines on a bite. They're useful for pulling we use that knot pulling in hardlines to winch cable underground works pretty neat only seen it break once.

My fishing knots:

Overhand (end of line to prevent slips)
Spider Hitch (rigging)
FG (leaders)
20-warp Clinch (my go-to knot for hooks and swivels)
Easy Snell (circle hooks)

Temp rope ladder: Marline Spike Hitch

I can never remember the right knot for the right situation. I get by just using over hand knots and slip knots.

You don't need fancy knots for most situations, just know the basics and you'll be fine.

For attaching rope to rope/fabric use the sheet bend (I never bother with square knots)

For rope to objects use clove hitch or timber hitch in most cases.

For loops in rope use bowline (probably the most important knot to learn and the one you should be able to tie quick in emergencies) for a fixed loop and taught-line for an adjustable loops for tarps/tents.

Fishing, sailing, and climbing have additional basic knots to learn but for general /out/ use these should suffice.

I was a boy scout for 12 years and I sail. Also a member of the fire service. There are what I have committed to memory.

Bowline
Half hitch
Clove hitch
Two half hitches
Taught line hitch
Timber hitch
Square knot
Sheet/Beckett bend
Water knot
Figure 8
Figure 8 on a bight
Figure 8 follow through
Handcuff knot
Square lashing
Triple lashing
Straight lashing
Sheep shank (party trick, but a knot)

Couple of fishing knots for joining mono line and attaching hooks.

FYI- figure 8s are less stress on your rope than bowlines and can accomplish all the same tasks

I think every human should know the bowline, fisherman's hitch, and clove hitch. They're not fancy but they're the most likely to be handy in daily use.

Palomar, Uni-Uni, and Surgeon's Loop is all I tie anymore. Actually sometimes a Trilene knot on flouro leaders.

Taughtline hitch is GOAT. so handy when you want something you can get un-cinched.
