HATCH fly lines - Tech advantages.
Here is the deal: Hatch has the luxury of being able to offer a small number of lines with perfect features. HATCH products are all about offering the best of the best in each product category, not on trying to be everything to everyone. They design the perfect line and get it produced by one of the worldÕs most respected fly line manufacturer, AIRFLO.
HATCH Professional Series Leaders and Tippet. Hatch decided to limit their offerings to superior fluorocarbon material, manufactured by a fluorocarbon specialist in Japan. They could have chosen any of the various formulations, so they selected the one they liked the best, and offer this material in the signature HATCH product line.
Highest grade fluorocarbon material. HATCH tapered leaders and tippet material has an excellent balance of strength, low memory, abrasion resistance, overall durability, and knot strength. This is superior fluorocarbon material, and we have fished and tested this stuff hard on sizable, hard pulling game species like Albacore and Chinook Salmon, while our clients have tested Hatch on species from Tarpon, Permit, GTs, Bonefish and Stripers.
HATCH Premium Backing. We fish routinely with RIO Dacron and Gel Spun backing material. Both are very good materials for backing. HATCH Premium backing feels smooth like Dacron, is smaller diameter than gel spun, has none of the slick feel of gel spun, and does not absorb water like Dacron will. The only negative to HATCH premium backing is the expense, but buck for buck, it is the finest material we have found, period. Did we mention that HATCH Premium backing is 8 strand, instead of the usual $ strand in many Polyethylene super braids? Eight strand makes for the nice round feel of the PE Premium HATCH backing.
Closing on HATCH. HATCH fly lines, leaders, and tippet materials are nothing short of fabulous products. In a world where we have a dizzying number of gear choices, it is comforting to know that one cannot fail to receive the highest level of performance from HATCH products. Count on it. From small streams to blue water applications, HATCH fly fishing gear delivers all day, everyday.
