  • An interview with Stephen Harrison the man behind Harrison Advanced Rods , one of Britian's top carp rod designers and builders. Harrison's use very high spec. carbon fiber to produce a whole range of rods and blanks, from fly rods through to lure rods. I first came across their rods after stopping to chat to a guy fishing for bass on a welsh beach with lures, he was raving about it and after he let me throw a couple of lures with it I understood why. The rod just did its job in an effortless way almost like an extension of my arm, the lightness, action and the retrieve felt a bit something i should have always been doing. www.harrisonrods.co.uk/

    Wow just seeing this out of the box czcams.com/users/postUgkxQr1yd4Zc6qJF-scTB6Zb9dQbVpviuRxB recommend I have yet to fish with this set up, but based on the first hands on appeal, I can tell this is going to change the way i pack and carry to a whole new level. If you fish like i do, you know the smaller and less stuff the better. I’ve added a photo of just some of my gear so you can see how serious i am about fishing.

    These Harrison rods are the go to rod for the type of Salmon out of the surf here in NZ. The 12' or 13' blanks with the low mount reel seats and the potential for long casting is what makes them so good. It was real good to come across this clip.

    What a great finished article too, they look absolutely stunning, would i be correct in saying that they were carp rods ??
    Us Angler's are always on the lookout for the next rod 👀 aren't we, and hoping to avoid the grief from e'r indoors 😳.
    Always interesting to see something in production processes.
