Striking green paint covers the teardrop body of this vintage Panther Martin 6, a design that has remained a favorite among trout enthusiasts for decades. Originating from Italy, this specimen features a silver-finished blade stamped with the model number 1009460 and the iconic brand logo. The in-line spinner construction, where the blade rotates directly around the wire shaft rather than on a clevis, is a hallmark of the 15843 product code. This specific design allows for a compact profile across its 2 1/4" (6 cm) length, making it a reliable choice for navigating the tight currents of small streams. The hardware shows a well-preserved bronze-finished treble hook. Rated at a condition of 5/5, the lure retains its vibrant pigment and clear stampings. The weighted body is carefully balanced to facilitate accurate casting into eddies and undercut banks where predators often hide.
