I can build on any of the Harrison Advanced Range. All Harrison rods are manufactured in the UK. Please find below the most popular rods from this range, if there is something you have in mind that is not listed please give me a ring.
Ballista Classic 12ft 2.5 / 2.75 / 3 / 3.5 T.C. - prices start from £190
This is Harrison’s most famous carp rod. It has been around for many years. The rod speaks for itself and is very slim. The 3lb tc is a great all round rod, very forgiving with miles of action right into the butt. It is good for medium size waters, fishing from under your feet to medium distance casting. It is a true classic and is finished in original matt unground carbon.

Ballista Slim 12ft 2.75 / 3 T.C. – prices start from £210
This is a very slim blank, best suited to small waters where casts in excess of 80 yards will not be needed. It is designed for light leads, and has loads of feel and loads of action but still has all the power to play the big carp at close quarters. These just have to be the slimmest carp rods on the market. It is finished in original matt unground carbon.

Chimera 12ft 2.5 / 2.75 / 3 / 3.25 / 3.5 T.C. – prices start from £200
This is Harrison’s best selling range of rods, you would buy these rods just because of how they look, but believe me they perform better than their appearance. Within this range alone there is a rod for every fishing situation, whether it be close, medium, long or extreme range fishing dependant on the test curve. It is very light, slim and crisp. They have a very quick tip recovery time with loads of back bone and very forgiven. Therefore if you are looking for one rod to do it all the Chimera 3¼ is the one to go for.

This is one of Harrison’s latest addition to their armoury, it is a fantastic looking rod. It raises the benchmark for an angler looking for a set of rods. From fishing close medium and to long range or PVA bag work these rods take it all in its stride. As soon as you pick the rod up you can feel the power, they are very light and slim, and has exceptionally quick tip recovery. The 12ft 3¼ T.C. is the most sort after rod, its able to achieve great distances with little effort. Whilst the 12ft 3½ T.C. always feel as if it can be pushed further.
