    If you have a bugnet, do not clip them on. Just let them sit on the net. The problem with clipping it is if you shift around, the net will move. I don't even clip them one when i don't have a net.

    But will they stay in place if you don't clip them on? I would assume they would slip.

    Where they stay has many variable. Tightness of your quilt suspension is the biggest one. They wind up being about 9 inched from the suspension. That will significantly improve the fit of your quilt.

    I decided to go with a combination of ridgeline hooks and quilt hooks along the hem of the hammock. This should reduce all the pressure being put on the ridgeline hooks and decrease slippage.
