A Yucca Flaccida	Here are about 6 yucca leaf fibers in a two ply twist to form a fishing line	With an exceptionally long leaf I made a 19 foot fishing line pictured above.
Here is an example of peeling bark from a limb to make a rope.	Here is a sample of the rope.  The bark rope can be used to make a bow drill string for a friction fire.
