Harrison Torrix (Custom Built)

!
  • Torrix is the lastest Steve Harrison designed  Carp Rod series. It utilises new tapers and new materials to produce fantastic performance at low diameter and weight. The butt and tip utilise two different carbon fibres in the zero axis to achieve low down casting power with forgiving no lock-up characteristics in the middle and tip. At ninety degrees is a ribcage of super lightweight carbon which controls the rod in compression. How the carbon performs in compression is as important in a bending rod as the way the fibres perform in tension. We aim for a design which balances the compression and tension performance to optimise the balance between casting and playing fish. The butt of the rod is given a surface ply of  1k carbon fabric which strengthens the rod, improves hoop strength and reduces torque. It looks pretty good too!
  • Most popular model is the 12’ 3 ¼ which will cast distance effortlessly in real world conditions and has produced close to 200yds on a casting field. New out is the 12’ 3 ½ which can achieve those extra few yards yet is still a very slim and light rod. Its also the most reliable rod series we have ever made. The standard rod is fitted with double leg Fuji  40mm ring set, Fuji DNPS 20 and slim shrink rubber abbreviated butt.
  • Available in 5 T/C all 12'
  • 2.5, 2.75, 3.00, 3.25, 3.50

 

Harrison Chimera (Custom Built)

!
  • Chimera has been our best selling Harrison range for some time. It introduced the two weave concept to the carp market, which both aids performance and looks. If imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, this rod has been seriously flattered as it has been copied time and time by other companies. The looks are not so hard to copy but the action is a bit trickier. The Chimera is a forgiving rod compared to some on the market yet it casts as well as many stiffer rods, but has the elasticity to soak up any last lunges of a big fish close in. If there is such a thing as a good all round carp rod, then the 12’ 3lb Chimera is it. The 12’ 3 ½ is an awesome distance machine that is not for everyone but the 3 ¼ offers the best of both worlds, a distance rod that anyone can enjoy using. Other options include full handle.  Full custom builds are available.
  • Available in 5 T/C and 2 lenghts
  • 12" 2.5, 2.75, 3.00, 3.25, 3.50
  • 13" 3.00, 3.25, 3.50

Harrison Ballista (Custom Built)

!
  • Ballista is our most famous carp rod and small changes over the years have kept it in the frame. Very slim with more action in the butt than our other rods the Ballista remains a very firm favourite for medium range fishing, though the wide range of tests curves include the legendary 12’ 3.50lb model which produces awesome distance. Available with a rugged unground finish or with custom colours for a little extra.
  • Available in 2 styles and 3 lenghts

Daiwa Infinity Advanced Carp Rods

!

Infinity® Advanced Carp Rod


The core blank design of all Infinity rods is recognized as unbeatable but when the combined knowledge and talent of Danny Fairbrass and Damian Clarke from Korda contributes to their improvement you have use ask how good are they now?
For optimum casting ability the distinct profile and balance of the Magnum Taper is unsurpassed. Utilising higher grade, low resin carbons within the top section simply enhances the balance and tip speed to another level. Their loading action compresses from the top into a higher diameter butt section that provides bags of cushion and power. When subjected to large casting loads this blank shape also presents excellent torque resistance enhancing the casting accuracy to a level that is respected by many of the UK's top carp anglers.

Totally contrasting in shape and action the Slim Powers are the epitome of rod beauty. Also exploiting the latest low-resin carbons within the top section these sleek rods betray gravity when partnered with a reel. Their power progressive curve loads seamlessly along the rod length but still delivers a crisp tip recovery whilst providing the level of forgiveness that is a must with braided mainlines. As required, furnishings are minimal but the best.

The Magnum Taper features a unique, contoured Daiwa reel seat that is matt finished. The Slim Power uses a Fuji DNPS faced off with metal trim rings. Each model is also armed with Fuji SiC guides and a low profile butt grip finished off with a sunburst etched metal butt cap.

Danny Fairbrass and Damian Clarke from KORDA consulted closely with the Daiwa design team during the development of the new Infinity Advanced Carp rods.
