    if you can get rocks with holes through them or get some holes drilled through 2 rocks

    then you can use those plastic cable / computer ties which are very strong to secure the wood to the rocks

    thats a better idea as with that you dont need to drill the rock
    you can just tie it to the rock

    strong enough for shark~ seriosly some very very strong line out there
    but you wont need much whatever the bogwood weighs when it wet - just get a breaking strain a bit more than that IMO
