Museum Archive: Panther Martin 6, 3/16oz Fire Tiger spinning lure #5010

A vibrant holographic Fire Tiger pattern defines the blade of this Panther Martin 6, identified by product code 5010. Measuring 2" (5 cm) in total length, the spinner remains unused in its original yellow carded blister pack. The 3/16 oz (6 g) weighted body is designed to assist with casting distance, paired with the iconic convex/concave blade mounted directly through the shaft. This clevis-free design is a hallmark of the Panther Martin brand, intended to facilitate immediate blade rotation and create sonic vibrations. Produced in the Dominican Republic for Harrison-Hoge Industries, the lure is equipped with a sharp, bronze-finished treble hook. The holographic finish provides a shimmering effect over the traditional green and orange tiger stripes, designed to catch the light effectively in various water clarities. All original packaging text, including the New York-based distributor information and safety warnings, is clearly legible on the yellow backing.
