Panther Martin FLY 1 Spinner - 1 g

Product Benefits

The Panther Martin FLY 1 GO spinner is a must-have lure for anglers seeking to provoke rapid strikes, even in heavily pressured areas. Thanks to its bullet-shaped weight and the addition of a colored fly on the hook, this model combines several visual and vibratory cues that are particularly attractive to predatory fish and salmonids.

The compact weight allows the spinner to descend quickly through the water column, making it easy to reach deep spots, holes, breaks or undercut banks. This immediate action near the bottom is a major advantage when fish are holding tight and are sluggish.

The fly mounted on the hook enhances the realism of the presentation. It suggests a living prey while adding pulses and a splash of color that can make the difference in both clear and stained water. Combined with the famous Panther Martin blade system, the FLY spinner produces strong, stable and consistent vibrations that are detectable from a distance by fish.

This spoon is suitable for both novice anglers and spinning specialists. Easy to use, it casts well, begins to rotate as soon as it is retrieved and remains effective at all retrieval speeds. Often, simply letting it work at the correct depth is enough to entice trout, perch and other small predators.

Technical Specifications

• Lure type: inline spinner with metal blade and integrated weight.
• Weight shape: compact, bullet-shaped weight designed to promote rapid descent through the water column.
• Action: straight retrieve or slightly animated with pulls and pauses to vary speed and depth.
• Rigging: hook fitted with a colored fly, providing an additional visual cue and increasing the lure's enticing power.
• Usage: river, stream, canal or lake fishing — effective in both strong currents and calmer waters.
• Target species: trout, perch and other small predators attracted by vibratory and visual signals from a spinner.
• Technique: cast-and-retrieve using light to medium spinning gear, depending on conditions and chosen spoon size.
• Finish: blade and body designed to produce flashes and a steady rotation even at low retrieval speeds.

All of these features make this model a versatile Panther Martin spinner, suitable for many freshwater situations. Whether prospecting a current, working along a bank or focusing on a deep hole, the FLY 1 GO covers ground quickly while giving excellent control of the lure.

Advantages and Strengths

The primary advantage of this spinner is its ability to reach the desired depth quickly. The bullet-shaped weight offers excellent penetration into the water, allowing effective fishing of lower layers without excessive casts. This fast descent is ideal for intercepting fish positioned near the bottom or close to structure.

The blade + fly combination is a second strong point. The blade generates tight, regular vibrations, typical of Panther Martin spinners, while the fly adds a subtle but decisive visual cue. This dual stimulation can imitate a small fish, an insect or a struggling prey, widening the range of species likely to strike.

Another appreciated advantage is ease of use. Even an inexperienced angler achieves an effective swim with a simple retrieve. The spinner begins to rotate on contact with the water, reducing the risk of blade misalignment. Experienced anglers can exploit this stability to vary speeds, add pauses or accompany the drift in strong currents.

Finally, this model integrates easily into a versatile tackle box. It fits both scouting trips and technical sessions. With its available variations, each angler can adapt the presentation to current conditions while retaining the core advantages: fast descent, pronounced vibrations and an attractive fly.

How to Use

To get the most from the FLY 1 GO spinner, adjust retrieval speed to depth and fish activity. At the start of a cast, let the spinner sink for a few moments to reach the desired layer, then begin a steady retrieve while maintaining contact with the lure.

In rivers, work the spinner slightly from upstream to downstream. Let it drift with the current with the rod tip high, then accompany the swim with short twitches of the blank. This natural presentation effectively covers edges, seams and back eddies where trout often hold.

On still water, favor a fan-shaped retrieve to prospect a wide area. Vary the speed, add short pauses to let the spinner sink again, then resume retrieval. These rhythm changes often provoke follows and strikes from trailing fish.

Pair the spinner with a discreet leader in nylon or fluorocarbon rated to the expected fish size. A simple, reliable knot checked regularly will reduce losses. Also check the condition of the hook and fly periodically to ensure good penetration and an always attractive presentation.
