Great demonstration of how to do a clove hitch when you have access to one end. However, I would never use a clove hitch to tie to a piling. It is too insecure, likely to shake loose with a bit of wave action. A round turn and two half hitches is no more difficult and much more secure.

Yep, the clove is a weak knot. Temporary as shown. Here's how to make it stronger: https://youtu.be/Lj0LywT1f1o
