    Best Hang of SuperFly with Flyz?

    Just bought a new Superfly, and a couple of Tarp Flyz on 12' of Zing It with a loop on the end. I hooked the flyz on the Superfly rings, ran the Zing It around the trees and back through the end loop then hooked it on to the flyz. Works fine other than I would like to rig it so my zing it lines are attached to my Superfly when pulling it out of the snakeskins. That way I could hook one end of the Superfly's line to a tree without setting the other end down to fish out and hook up the line.

    I was thinking of putting the zing it loop around the Superfly loop, then running the zing it through the two holes on the flyz with a knot on on the end to keep them from slipping off.

    Any input is appreciated. I am very knot impaired (thus the Dutch Bling). I don't want to do knots every time I hook up.

    Since you like Dutch bling how about a pair of tiny Dutch Hooks so you can just loop around the tree, hook directly onto the zing-it, and have a single run back to your flyz?

    There's no need for either of those methods. The flyz are versitile. See Dutches video:

    Lock it down close to the tarp to get the V like a stingrz and if you need more length slide it closer to the tree and lock it down like a wasp

    Thank you. That's kind of what I was thinking, but will the spliced loop that came on the end of the zing it be strong enough to hold if put it on the ring of the superfly?

    We have three COGS tarps and all have the zingit with loops and flyz installed just larks headed into the tarp ridge line loops. Flyz are close to the tarp so like said above, wrap one arrive a tree while holding the stuff sack and connect end to flyz with D ring approximately where you want it, then feed out tarp to other tree and connect that line around tree and back to flyz. Adjust position if needed and tension! I may go to a continuous ridge line, but this works well too.
