The Aviator Blank

The backbone of the Aviator range is the blank, made here in England. All Aviator blanks are made by one of four specalists who only make top quality carp blanks. True craftsmen with a lifetime of experience making high performance rod blanks. It is difficult to overstate how skilled a job this is. Each blank is made on our own bespoke mandrels from a stack of patterns as complicated as a Saville row suit. All cut by hand. The team can make this look easy, but like playing a musical instrument, it is only easy because they have learned the skill over many years.

Although the hands-on skill is very traditional, the materials themselves are anything but. At Harrisons we have cold rooms stocked with the best carbon fibre prepreg available, both in terms of the fibre and the quality of the impregnation. We use Toray raw materials for most of our production as they have always offered the finest flat uniform prepreg.  Especially important when you are using lightweight carbon prepreg down to 20 grammes per square metre.

After rolling the blanks they are cured in computer controlled ovens. This process combined with balanced designs leads to rods that will not fatigue and will perform the same at ten years old as they did on day one. Performance has been tuned by years of feedback and testing in a way that mass producers struggle to match.

Harrisons have always led the field on blank innovation and the Aviator continues this tradition. The Harrison objective has always been to produce a blank that delivers fishing pleasure as well as performance. In Aviator you will find a range of rods that will not just cast and play fish well but also deliver feedback and feel. And isn’t that the most important thing? The feel in your hand when playing a fish is what makes fishing with a rod and running line so special.

Aviator blanks are finished in 1k woven fabric four toughness and looks, and ground to a natural matt finish that is scratch resistant and will look good for years.

Action

It is impossible to sum up an Aviator blank in a few words like progressive action, or high modulus. To do so would overlook the complexity and subtlety of the design. The zero axis fibres, those that run along the length of the blank are high modulus in the butt section and intermediate modulus in the tip. Around the blank we have thin layers of fibres to increase strength and control torque. These vary in angle from 90 to 45 degrees in different zones of different rods in the range. This is all encased in 1k woven carbon fibre. A typical Aviator blank is made from up to ten individual hand cut pieces of carbon and of three different fibre types.
