pot rope and winches

 Hi all, Want to put a winch on my boat for pot pulling. Can knots go through/round the winch? Also does most sort of rope work with the winch?

Looking forward to another good year ahead on da crays

Go to someone like Taylor Marine and get a full 220 metre roll of 10 ro 12mm for around $120.  proves a bloody sight cheaper than buying 2nd hand stuff for $24 for 30 metres
