List of products by brand Panther Martin

Panther Martin is a brand renowned for its spinning spoons, particularly effective for trout fishing.

Panther Martin is best known for its in-line spinners, a lure design built around a blade mounted directly on the wire shaft rather than on a separate clevis. The brand introduced this shaft-through-blade concept in the United States in 1958 and it remains the defining feature of the classic Panther Martin spinner. The convex/concave blade starts rotating quickly and creates flash and vibration even at relatively slow retrieve speeds. Combined with a weighted body, this makes Panther Martin spinners useful in streams, rivers and lakes where anglers need a lure that can begin working immediately after landing and can be kept lower in the water when required. Trout are the species most closely associated with Panther Martin, but the range is also used for other freshwater predators and gamefish. Model and size choice should therefore be based on water depth, current, target size and tackle rather than assuming one spinner fits every situation. Small sizes are better suited to light trout tackle and shallow streams, while larger and heavier versions provide more casting distance and depth in bigger rivers or lakes. The Classic patterns represent the core design, while Holographic and other finishes mainly change visual signal. The InLine Swivel series adds an integrated swivel directly into the shaft assembly to reduce line twist without adding a separate external swivel in front of the lure. Retrieve speed is one of the most useful adjustments with an in-line spinner. In cold water or deeper pools, a slower retrieve keeps the lure working lower in the water. In warmer or shallower conditions, increasing speed can keep the blade active above rocks and vegetation. In current, cast angle matters as much as retrieve speed: quartering upstream and allowing the lure to swing can keep it in the strike zone longer than simply retrieving straight back. For tackle balance, Panther Martin recommends light line with the smaller sizes and progressively heavier line as lure size increases. The practical goal is to use a line diameter light enough to preserve blade start-up and casting distance while keeping enough margin for the target fish and structure. Key range features: in-line shaft-through-blade spinner design; convex/concave blade; weighted bodies; Classic, Holographic and InLine Swivel families; multiple sizes for trout and other freshwater species.
