Best Martin Panther color for bass

[sculpinman]

What’s the best color for small bass? There’s a lake next to me with clear but a tiny bit stained water. It’s very visible you can all the way to the bottom but is stained but dust and sand. I love catching those small baby bass so what’s the best color?

Go to the Panther Martin website go to the guides and there, click on the bass guide. There is some very useful information there. Also you can request the 2022 catalog. I bought this one.

Can't beat the classic black body/gold blade...I haven't found many fish that wouldn't hit one...

Honestly I doubt it matters that much.  Pick one that looks good to you, and that will be fine.  I've fished inline spinners my whole life, Shysters, Mepps, Roostertails, Panther Martins.  I've never noticed that fish seem to have a preference.  Plus, small bass are dumb.  It won't matter.

 

The only trouble you may have is getting the bait down to the bottom, depending on how deep you need to fish.  Inlines aren't ideal deep water lures, but it can be done.

I like gold blade like the yellow body with red dots on sunny days or stained water and silver blade on overcast days like the pure silver panther martin.

I have a lake like that near me. I use the 1/2 oz. red from their Salmon and Steelhead family. I always thought it imitated a craw. Don't know for sure, but it catches'em.
