What would be a good easy-to-find glue for outside wood?

Borden's white glue says to not to submerge item, but doesn't say it
can't get wet. Or would Borden's hide glue be better?


Planned use: I can't get matching pickets for my fence anymore, so to
avoid using too many new ones from what I have, sometimes I glue an
old one back together. And this weekend, I'm screwing a patch into my
neighbor's fence 2x4, that rests on the edge of sheet of t-11 and a
couple posts, but I'd like to glue the end of the new patch to the old
2x4, if I can.

Any of the popular woodworking glues should be fine. I use Titebond II or
III simply because . . .well . . . because. I have used it to glue up
splits in some of my redwood fencing and it has held for years.

Hide glue is water soluble so would not be a good choice.
