Harrison spend every day thinking about and designing carp rods, and they have and do work with many of the top names in carp fishing, but coming up with something really new is hard. Not for them the product each year with a new name on an old rod with a new colour or trim. They will not launch a new rod until it clearly has something more to offer.
Chimera and Ballista may have been out a few years but improving on them has been very difficult. All around the world Harrison's staff meet anglers who are reluctant to change their ten year old Ballista's, but in early 2005 Harrison developed a new way of rolling blanks that has helped them to launch a new range of world beating products
