    I'm still trying to figure out my 'best' method and I've been here a bit.

    One thing to watch for when you are choosing is whether it works with a built in bug net on your hammock. Some do, some don't.

    You are right. I do have that concern. I saw that dutch sewed the clips on his hammock. Not sure how he did it. But that is what i got from his video

    I added some 1/8 shock corded toggles to the four corners and some loops to the hammock. They keep the hammock centered in perfect placement and all I have to do is adjust the shock cord cinch lines in the ends to stop or allow air movement beneath me.
    Whether trail or paddle don't you know
    My hammock is the way to go
    There peace and solitude I find
    To ease all troubles from my mind
    Both body and soul revel in delight
    As day surrenders to inky night
