+1 here, it all fits right in the double sided sack that came with my dutchware hammock. I leave the bug net cinched up at the gathered ends.

Same here, stored with the hammock, dont see the point of removing it each time.

I also do this. With my Fronkey bug net, I modified it so if I don't want to use the net I just open the end that I put a slit in (head end, held closed with velcro) and slide it out of the way. It's a little bulkier then just a hammock alone in the stuff sack, but not that much....

You can see the stuff sack on the right at the end of my hammock....I use a bishop bag but as you can see, it's not that big.

Perfect timing for this thread - I just got my new Dutch Wide 11' Netless Hammock and Fronkey-style bug net today. I ended up just pulling it to the head end of the hammock (never removed from the hammock/ridgeline) and stuffed into the double-ended stuff sack that came with the hammock. I can easily just open the end of the stuff sack and pull it over the hammock to the foot end - takes maybe 5 seconds. I've very pleased with that!

I would like to be able to store my underquilt attached to the hammock as well, but I don't think the stuff sack is nearly big enough to fit it all in there. I'm planning on buying a bigger stuff sack to make a bishop bag to accomplish this. This would be MUCH faster than my previous setup (all ENO) which I had to store everything alone in their own stuff sacks.

That's the "bottom entry bug net" in the double ended stuff sack at the head of the hammock.

That's the hammock and bug net both stored away (the net isn't over the hammock currently - it's pulled to the top).

I keep mine in the double-ended stuff sack that came with the hammock. I don't leave it attached to the hammock because I often bring a different hammock each trip and I only have one net.
