    I have the Bliss no-see-um and like it for a day hang, but I don't like to use it for night hangs because of the stretch - by morning I am usually touching the ground even if I start 2 feet off the ground. Good, fun hammock, just too much sag.

    I agree, it does sag some. I set in mine high, then recline in it a while before bed time, then I can make an height adjustments that may be necessary.
    I usually do not have to re-adjust, I guess it just takes getting use to.

    I was wondering if you were to add a ridge line out of dynaglide if this would hold the net up out of your face. You could eliminate the netting ropes and save some weight as well.

    It might. I think if you were going to do that, you would want to save the top pass back loops and use those to run the dynaglide through. It would probably only save a few grams though.

    On the sag, I did experience a good deal of sag, I did have to hang the hammock higher than I normally do when hanging. The first night I experienced the but on the ground by morning thing. If you flip the hammock and use it with the net on the bottom you don't have that. Which lead me to wonder if you could make one of these out of just the bug net.
