    Eno pro fly

    I'm a little concerned about the pro fly leaving a narrow dry spot. Tips anyone?

    I guess I don't understand what you are asking?

    The ProFly is only 6'4" wide, so you don't get much side coverage. You're probably in the market for a wider tarp.

    Are you looking for Hammock Gear tarp recommendations? You are in that sub forum, but you may be asking just general questions. A wider tarp will make a huge difference for you. The one you have is ok for straight down rain, not as good for angle rain.
    Look up before you hook up!!

    Looks like the hammock stayed dry though. Only thing i could to think to do is hang the tarp a little lower if you are expecting rain.

    I have a Profly and it's ok but I've gotten much better coverage from a Hennessy hex fly. They are cheaper than a Profly also.

    I've got a kelty noah 20 on the way that will shelter two hammocks and a tent, really excited about that one.

    I did and I see the narrow dry ground, but I don't understand the concern. I have the same setup and while a wider tarp would be nice, if the rain is other than straight down I simply lower the tarp some and haven't yet had an issue with wet "stuff". My lack of understanding was whether or not there was a question involved or was this a simple statement.

    Probably only a matter of time before you have an issue. I've seen these tarps in the field and there's only so low you can go. A tarp that is 8 or 10 ft. wide will provide a lot more coverage. You're getting about 68 square feet of coverage with a ProFly, whereas an 11 x 10 Superfly (with doors) provides 110 square feet, or about 40% more coverage.
