Panther Martin Classic Inline Spinner 6 - 7 g

Product highlights

A true reference for freshwater fishing, the Panther Martin Classic inline spinner is an essential spinning lure for targeting trout, perch, chub and many other predatory fish. Its simple, robust design makes it a preferred choice for both novice and experienced anglers seeking a reliable and effective metal trout lure throughout the season. Thanks to its characteristic blade mounted on the shaft, this inline spinner starts rotating instantly at the slightest pull and generates strong vibrations combined with pronounced flashes. It allows quick coverage of water, exploration of different depth layers, and can provoke reflex strikes even from educated or sluggish fish. Versatile, it is at home in small cluttered streams as well as large rivers or stillwaters, ideal for all cast-and-retrieve itinerant fishing.

Technical specifications

• Robust metal construction, well suited to repeated impacts against rocks and repeated fish strikes.
• Single or treble hook depending on the version, always sized to ensure excellent hooksets while limiting break-offs.
• Available in multiple weights and color variations to adapt to many river profiles and lighting conditions.
• Ideal inline spinner for trout, perch, chub and other freshwater predators.

Benefits and strengths

The major strength of the Panther Martin Classic inline spinner lies in its immediate effectiveness: simply cast, tighten the line and begin the retrieve for the blade to start turning perfectly. This instant action is a major advantage when fishing currents, where it is essential that the lure works as soon as it enters the targeted water column. The combination of tight vibrations and light flashes perfectly imitates a small fleeing prey, triggering decisive strikes from wild trout as well as from perch lying near the margins. Versatile, this trout and predator spinner handles a wide range of retrieval speeds, from slow near-bottom retrieves to faster animations just under the surface. Its ability to fish effectively both upstream and downstream makes it a reliable ally to methodically prospect every spot, whether a break, a shaded bank or a shallow run.

Usage tips

To get the most out of your Panther Martin Classic, rig it on a light spinning outfit with a progressive action rod, spooled with low-diameter monofilament or fluorocarbon to favor casting distance and stealth. A quality barrel swivel placed a few dozen centimeters above the spinner reduces line twist. In rivers, make slightly upstream or three-quarter upstream casts and accompany the drift while maintaining constant contact with the lure; as soon as the line tightens, begin a steady retrieve, occasionally varying speed or adding short pauses to let the spinner sink. Don’t hesitate to alternate casting angles and depths to find the fish activity window. In stillwaters, the trout inline spinner is very effective on breaklines or along weedbeds: make fan casts to cover a wide area and adjust retrieval speed to keep the lure just above the bottom or obstacles.
