14" McCloud Trout

Advantages: Performs well, Quality, Style/Design

"I use these on Crane Creek all the time, all colors. I've caught lots of McCloud trout- one of 3 places in the world where they can be found, by far the healthiest (fishable) population. Sometimes I buzz the trebles down to 1 hook with a dremel."

Panther Martin ~ A good buy, August 30, 2008
By mokan from missouri ozarks

"If you're in BPS, you owe it to yourself to pick up a Panther Martin Fly Spinner. Check 'em out, very good in-line spinners that catch fish.
Used them alot when I was younger, wading ponds and creeks with a spincast outfit. Recommended to other fishermen.
The Gold / orange was a favorite.

I can't keep the fish off of these lures!, July 19, 2008
By Luv2fishSmallWater from Columbia, Maryland

"First off, I love to use ultralight gear when fishing, so these spinners fit right into my style. They cast like bullets and you can "feel" the vibrations that these things throw off in the water. I have caught Bluegills to Largemouth bass on 'em. The best colors for me have been the silver blades with the orange/black fly as well as the gold blade with the orange/black fly.

I got turned onto Panther Martin lures during the 2008 BPS Spring Fishing Classic, when I noticed them in a huge sale bin. I picked up one of each color that was there and haven't looked back since! A great product from Panther Martin!

deadly and diverse!, June 22, 2008
By whojosh from cincinnati, Oh

"this lure is great for any specie of fish. throw this in a cold water stream, you'll catch trout, throw it in a small stream, you'll catch smallmouth, white bass, crappie, and sauger, throw it in a northern lake and catch northern pike, musky, and walleye, and throw it in a farm pond and you'll catch largemouth and MONSTER BLUEGILL. one great thing is the variety of colors it comes in. if there is a specie of fish you CAN'T catch with, LET ME KNOW!!!!!!!"

Trout Magic, May 12, 2008
By sitruc from Mohave County, Arizona

"Panther Martins have been one of my best trout producers when I use spinners. They cast like a rocket and run well even in heavy current. They are quality made and best of all they work. My favorite colors have been the all silver or gold but many of the other patterns have worked excellent for me too."

Best trout spinner on the market, April 20, 2008
By bassharier

"A fishing buddy got me hooked on these about 20 years ago. I was a die hard Rooster Tail fan then. ( Still my favorite for bass ). Not bragging or anything, but he would outfish me every time while trout fishing using this while I used my favorite, and I was a better fisherman then he was. Guess what spinner I use now? You know it. Panther Martin Rocks!"

Panther Martin, August 17, 2007
By FishinsMyLife317 from SC

"The 1/32 ounce PM is deadly on bream and little bass. In NC, I caught 150+ fish in a few days on this including bream, warmouth, smallmouth, largemouth, and crappie. The biggest was a 1 pound smallmouth. With an ultralite and this bait, you can fill your freezer or just have a day of fun catchin anything that swims."

An old stand by, October 28, 2006
By swindaddy from St. Joseph, Mo.

"The P.M. fly has always been one of my go-to lures for catching fish. The #6 and the #15 in gold and silver were and still are fish catching marvels. I've caught everything on them, bass bluegills crappie. One time while trolling w/ my Grandpa on Stockton lake for white bass, I had something hit my #15 hard. After about 5 minutes of give n take on both sides I finally reeled in a 6lb Carp. My Dad and I have used them to catch northern pike up in Minnesota too. If any company reps from Harrison Hoge are reading this, BRING BACK THE #15 PANTHER MARTIN FLY!!!!!! This lure is a multi-species fishermans must have."

What-a-spinner!, June 28, 2006
By Lazy day fisher from Evansville, IN

"Best spinner I ever used. Other spinners seem to stop spinning and scoot aimlessly through the water. Panther Martin spinners seem to retreive well regardless of retrieval speed. It has been very effective for bass and catfish at a local lake."

Panther Martin Fly Spinners, May 17, 2006
By Fisher For Life from Kansas City, KS

"I have used these Panther Martins in the Snake River valley up in Idaho at various points in the river and have caught many trout. I have also used them in the tributaries to the Palasades Lake and caught fish there as well. This is a very versitile lure and they work. It that easy, they work!!
