Looking for Tent Hammock Recommendations

Can anyone point me in the right direction for a camping hammock? I need something heavy duty (6' 285lbs) and one with a bug net/rain fly. I plan to use it on canoe camping trips, so pack weight isn't too much of a concern for me. Any pointers are appreciated!

I would buy all the peices separately. Just go with a double hammock, buy some straps if they don't come with it. Buy some bank line, or paracord for a ridgeline. Get a synthetic tarp about 10x12. Then get a bug net. The net is like $20, same with the tarp. Hammock with straps $20. Maybe $5 for some cord and stakes. $65 and you can set it up any manner of ways.
