    DIY Bishop Bag

    Just finished crafting a Bishop bag for my ENO Double Nest.

    I used the stuff sack that came with my ENO ProFly tarp. I use snake skins on the tarp now and it no longer fits into the stuff sack...

    Picked up some "Snap and Tap" grommets from Wal-Mart for a couple of bucks and the rest is history.

    Works like a charm...

    Great idea - Thanks!
    I got in a fight one time with a really big guy, and he said, "I'm going to mop the floor with your face." I said, "You'll be sorry." He said, "Oh, yeah? Why?" I said, "Well, you won't be able to get into the corners very well."

    Thanks for the tip on the tarp bag. I converted the bag from my dry fly last night and it looks great. Terrific idea.
