The 5+ model is pretty much a "do it all" and...."do it well".....fly reel. We’ve used this workhorse surf fishing in So Cal, light steelheading in Oregon, chucking nasty streamers to ravenous browns in Montana, and stalking bones on the flats in Belize. Custom, limited edition "Endless Summer" color here.

The Hatch Iconic Reel retains the now ‘Iconic’ Hatch window pattern with 6 fins, recalling the original Finatic model. Instantly identifiable and classic, the Hatch look is simply Iconic. However, they were due for a style upgrade that can be seen in the shape of their drag knob - which brings depth - and their ‘H’ brand logo. They now use a bright dip finishing that brings out the shine of the machined parts while also keeping the strong coloring of matte anodize. The 5 plus model is featured here in the Custom Endless Summer color.

* MACHINED REEL SEAT-  Hatch was the first and now one of the only reel manufacturers to make the reel body out of one piece. It is an expen­sive way to produce the reel but has the advantage of never having a reel seat loosen up due to galvanic corrosion. For the Iconic, they have reshaped the reel seat for a more contemporary look.
* IMPROVED SEALING- Through better design and concentricity, they have increased sealing by eliminating water entry points through subtracting superfluous components from past models.
* IMPROVED STABILITY- The Iconic reel does not utilize a cassette to house the drag system as in past models - in­stead, it is now built into the body. This has decreased axial runout which creates a more stable and solid design.
* NEW DRAG MATERIAL- Their new carbon-filled drag material not only dissipates heat faster but also creates a smooth­er feel. This is their smoothest drag system to date.
* NEW SPOOL DESIGN- In many ways, the Iconic spool is similar to previ­ous models, but with a few key differences. They have ported the spool arbor which will allow lines to dry better on the reel after use - think of it as ventilation.
* NEW SPOOL NUT- New look, similar function, but with a big improve­ment. On the Iconic they have implemented a one piece design in order to prevent pieces from coming apart.
* NEW HANDLE/COUNTERWEIGHT- The new handle design significantly reduces the risk of galvanic corrosion. While we have retained the aluminum handle, it now has a softer look and feel.
