Axia 5.5″ Split Ring Pliers – The Lure Angler’s Essential Multi-Tool

When the bite is on and you need to swap a blunt hook or upgrade your trebles, you don’t want to be fumbling with bulky tools. The Axia 5.5″ Split Ring Pliers, available here at Gerry’s Fishing, are the ultimate “pocket mechanic” for the modern lure angler.

Engineered for precision and speed, these 14cm (5.5″) pliers combine three vital functions into one compact frame. The specialized split-ring “beak” makes opening even the toughest rings effortless, while the fine-nose pliers and integrated cutters handle everything from unhooking fish to trimming leader material. Finished in high-visibility Green, Orange, and Black, these are designed to be found easily in your bag and felt comfortably in your hand.

Where to Use the Axia Split Ring Pliers

Rock Hopping & Wading: Their compact 14cm size makes them perfect for “light-travel” lure anglers who carry everything in a small chest pack or pocket.
Lure Maintenance: Use the “beak” tip to swap out rusted saltwater trebles for fresh ones without breaking a fingernail or damaging the split ring’s tension.
On the Boat: The integrated cutters are perfect for quick adjustments to fluorocarbon or mono leaders when the species change throughout the day.
Finesse Fishing: The fine-nose profile is ideal for removing small hooks from delicate-mouthed fish like Perch, Trout, or Scad.

Gerry’s Pro Tip

“The secret to longevity with split ring pliers is the ‘Beak Alignment.’ When opening a ring, don’t force it; find the gap, insert the tooth, and apply gentle pressure. Because these pliers feature a built-in safety latch, always store them in the ‘closed’ position when not in use. This protects the precision-ground tip from getting bent or blunted in your tackle box, ensuring it stays sharp enough for those tiny finesse rings.”

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these open small ‘micro’ split rings?

Yes. The 5.5″ model is specifically designed with a fine enough tip to handle standard and small-sized split rings common on lures from 50mm to 130mm.

Are the cutters suitable for braid?

While the cutters are excellent for monofilament and fluorocarbon, for a perfectly clean, fray-free cut on limp braid, we always recommend the dedicated Axia Braid Scissors.

Is the handle comfortable with wet hands?

Absolutely. The soft-touch polymer is textured to provide a “tacky” grip, which is essential when your hands are wet, salty, or covered in fish slime.

Can I attach these to a zinger?

Yes! The integrated lanyard loop is the perfect size for a split ring or clip, allowing you to attach it to a retractable zinger or a coiled lanyard for instant access
