IMA Qualy 105F | 105mm 12g – The Precision Versatility Specialist

At Gerry’s Fishing, we understand that a lure needs to be as adaptable as the angler behind the rod. The IMA Qualy 105F is a masterclass in versatility, bridging the gap between finesse stream fishing and rugged coastal shore work. Measuring 105mm (4 inches) and weighing in at 12g, this lure is engineered to be a “go-to” search bait for Bass, Pike, and large Trout across both saltwater and freshwater environments.

The Qualy 105F features a slim, hydrodynamic profile that slices through the air for impressive casting distance, while its swimming action is tuned to mimic the exact vibration and shimmy of vulnerable baitfish.

Why the Qualy 105F is a Tackle Box Essential

1. The Stealth “Sinking” Pause

While many lures in this class simply float or sit static, the Qualy 105F features a unique design that allows for a slow-sinking action during a pause. For the stealthier angler, this is a lethal trigger; as the retrieve stops, the lure begins a slow, provocative descent that often initiates an “ambush strike” from predators that have been shadowing the bait.

2. Hydrodynamic Casting Performance

Weight and shape are perfectly balanced here. The slim profile and internal weight distribution ensure that the Qualy 105F casts like an arrow, even when fishing from the shore into a light breeze. This allows you to stay further back from clear water or shallow margins to avoid spooking wary fish.

3. All-Terrain Depth Range

Diving between 0.5m and 1.5m, the Qualy 105F occupies that “sweet spot” of the water column. It is shallow enough to be worked over submerged weed beds and rocky structures, yet deep enough to reach fish holding in mid-water currents or deeper stream pools.

Product Details and Uses

Mastering Shore and Stream

The Qualy 105F is a true cross-over lure. In saltwater shore fishing, it is a fantastic tool for working the “wash” and shallow gullies where Bass hunt sprats and sandeels. In freshwater streams and rivers, its responsiveness to slight rod movements makes it ideal for navigating around boulders and overhanging cover to find hiding Pike or territorial Trout.

Stealth and Responsiveness

This lure is highly responsive to angler input. Whether you prefer a steady retrieve to let the natural “S-curve” do the work, or an aggressive jerk-and-twitch style, the Qualy 105F stays stable. Its high-quality construction ensures it can withstand the abrasive conditions of saltwater while maintaining the delicate balance needed for slow-moving currents.

Reliable Hooksets

Equipped with ultra-sharp, high-strength treble hooks, the Qualy 105F is built to pierce the toughest jaws. This ensures that even the most tentative “tap” results in a secure hookset, giving you the confidence to tackle larger game fish in challenging environments.

Gerry’s Pro Tip:

When fishing in clear water or areas with high pressure, try the “Wait-for-it” technique. Retrieve the Qualy 105F at a medium pace for three or four meters to get its attention, then kill the retrieve completely for three full seconds. The slow sink during the pause is a massive trigger—be ready for the strike the moment you start reeling again!

From secluded streams to expansive coastlines, the IMA Qualy 105F is the durable, high-performance hunter that turns follows into captures.
