Museum Archive: Vintage Weedless Panther Martin Weed Wing, 1/2oz Black fishing spoon #12836

Finished in a solid black coating, the heavy-duty profile of this vintage specimen is immediately recognizable to those who fish heavy cover. Weighing in at 1/2 oz (14g) and measuring 2 3/4" (7cm), the Weedless Panther Martin Weed Wing is engineered for stability when navigating through thick lily pads or reeds. This particular item, bearing product code 12836, features signature side stabilizers or "wings" near the eyelet which help the lure plane and deflect debris. The single, large hook is shielded by a fine wire guard, a classic weedless configuration that remains a staple for bass and pike anglers. Showing a condition rating of 5/5, the black finish is exceptionally well-preserved, maintaining a smooth texture from the head down to the hook point. The integrity of the wire guard and the secure attachment of the wings reflect the high manufacturing standards Panther Martin applied to their specialty weedless tackle.
