Axia Stall – 110mm – 13.7g

Axia Stall 110mm – The Long-Casting Shallow Specialist

When you need to reach distant features but require a lure that stays in the upper layers of the water, the Axia Stall 110mm is your go-to weapon. Available here at Gerry’s Fishing, this diving minnow is engineered for maximum ballistic performance and a lethal, high-response action that triggers aggressive strikes from Pike, Perch, and Zander alike.

The standout feature of the Stall is its dual-tungsten balancing system. These weights shift forward during the cast, ensuring the lure cuts through the air like a dart and enters the water nose-first—ready to fish the instant it hits. With a tight, high-vibration wobble and a 1m diving depth, it’s a master of searching shallow-to-mid-water columns.

Technical Specifications

Where to Use the Axia Stall

• Shallow Canal Shelves: Use the 1m diving depth to “rake” the shelves where Perch and Zander often sit waiting for baitfish to move off the mud.

• Large Stillwaters: The tungsten-weighted casting ability makes this an excellent “search bait” for covering vast areas of open water to locate active Pike.

• River Glides: The tight wobble remains stable even in moderate currents, making it perfect for working across the flow in mid-sized rivers.

• Sunken Structure: Because it is a floating lure, you can work it right up to submerged branches or rocks. If you feel a “bump,” simply stop—the lure will float up and over the snag.

Gerry’s Pro Tip

“The ‘Stall’ gets its name from its most effective technique: the Power-Pause. While it has a great straight-retrieve action, the real magic happens when you abruptly stop winding. The lure will ‘stall’ in the water and slowly begin to float back toward the surface. This ascending motion mimics a baitfish that has lost its swim bladder or is struggling for air—it’s the ultimate trigger for a following predator to smash it from below.”

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the tungsten weight help?

Tungsten is much denser than lead, allowing for a smaller internal weight that provides better balance and significantly improved casting distance. It also ensures the lure stays stable in the air, preventing “tumbling.”

Is 13.7g heavy enough for Pike?

Absolutely. While it’s a great “specimen Perch” size, the 110mm profile is a classic snack-sized target for Pike of all sizes, particularly in the spring and summer when they are feeding on smaller prey.

What is the best retrieve speed?

The Stall is versatile. A slow wind creates a subtle shimmy, while a fast retrieve produces a frantic, tight vibration. We recommend mixing it up with “stop-start” movements for the best results.

Can I use this for Bass in the sea?

Yes! The 110mm length and 1m depth make it a fantastic shallow-water bass lure, especially when fishing over rocky gullies where you need to stay above the kelp.
