Museum Archive: Weedless Panther Martin Weed Wing, 1/2oz Nickel fishing spoon #11286

Nickel finishes provide a high-flash profile on this vintage spinner, which weighs in at 1/2 oz (14 g). Designed for heavy cover, the Weedless Panther Martin Weed Wing features a distinctive teardrop-shaped blade mounted directly through the wire shaft. This specific specimen, cataloged under product code 11286, remains in its original vintage packaging and is unused. Measuring 2 3/4" (7 cm) in length, the lure is equipped with a large, sturdy single hook protected by a wire weed guard to prevent snags in thick vegetation. The yellow and blue backing card identifies it as a product from Harrison-Hoge Industries, featuring the iconic Panther Martin branding and Italian origin. The reverse side of the packaging includes a Prop 65 warning and the company's Port Jefferson, NY, contact details. This classic maintains its bright metallic surfaces and original hardware integrity.
