Not sure if you mean you have an adjustable trap system, or you just want to have your trap lines and stop set correctly.
Since there are many variables, (as mentioned above) an adjustable system works VERY well. in heavy air, when i need to hike more... i sit very low on the wire. In light air (or big waves) i sit higher. And VERY often, i adjust my position while on the wire as needed. If i am low, and see a big wave comming, i just pull the adjuster in and move up to avoid being soaked...
