===== Nudo de pescador doble. =====

Se trata de una version mas fuerte que la anterior, aunque tambien queda
mas abultado. A pesar de todo, si se utiliza en escalada o en
situaciones en que pueda haber riesgo para las personas, se deben
encintar los chicotes, para evitar que rocen contra los bordes de las
rocas y disminuir el riesgo de que el nudo se afloje.

Aunque en los dibujos se presentan dos formas ligeramente distintas de
confeccionarlo el resultado final es practicamente el mismo.

even after being loaded.

===== Trigger bend =====

The Trigger Bend is a slipped bend that is designed to keep light
pressure on the draw loop in order to permit release even under hard
strain.

If the ropes are of unequal size, use the thicker of the two ropes to
form a “U” shape, shown in gray. With the thinner rope, tightly coil
around the “U” shape, starting on the standing part side. More coils may
be required for slippery rope or for extreme strain. Fewer coils may be
needed for supple rope or dissimilar rope sizes. Finish by tying a
slipped overhand knot around the standing part of the mating rope as
shown.

If instant release is not required, a non-slipped finish may be employed
instead. A substitute finish of a slipped clove hitch around the
standing part, as seen in a slipped buntline hitch, may be used to
obtain a perpendicular release line direction, but will use more line
and add complexity.
