I have to say, what a breath of fresh air to see someone properly and respectfully land and release a trout. Absolute minimal time out of water, no hands, and the correct net material. Thank you sir, for leading by example
🎣
When I was younger, I used a lot of Rooster Tail spinners. Then I found Mepps, and started having better luck. Best performer of all for me though has been Panther Martin. Then again, I am fishing a local lake for stockies, so I don't have a current to help with the lure action. In still water, you are dependent on retrieve rate to make the lure spin, and I have found that Mepps and Rooster Tail spinners have to be retrieved faster to get the desired spin/action. This often leads to trout just following my lure to the bank without striking. The slower retrieve rate attainable with Panther Martin spinners is often just the edge that will make a trout hit. I agree that in the right water, they are all good performers.
Rooster tails get bent really easy for me.
What do you prefer for lures when fishing trout in lakes? I usually fish with worms.
BOTH Classics and still catching fish to this day in 2021! Tight lines!
100%
I love both but Mepps is my first choice…. Either way. Solid lures. Tried and true.. I have caught a ton of fish on the Silver Mepps #2 Aglia. It was always my go to lure.
Great spinners! Love the Panther Martin though. Especially the black and yellow with the gold blade. Awesome comparison. Tight line's everyone!👍🎣
Heck yeah! Thanks for watching
I dont mean to be so offtopic but does someone know a method to log back into an instagram account??
I was stupid forgot the password. I love any tricks you can offer me!
@Jamal Emmett Instablaster :)
@Kason Trevor i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site through google and im trying it out now.
Seems to take quite some time so I will reply here later with my results.
@Kason Trevor It worked and I finally got access to my account again. Im so happy!
Thank you so much you saved my ass :D
I've always been a mepps guy but they're both great lures
I've always loved mepps, I've caught many big browns on size 3 gold blade, tho I have started to make my own spinners and they work very well, caught close 200 this year just on my spinners, brooks, browns, rainbows, and even a few palominos up here in PA. Great content, keep up the good work👍
Hey, bud. I’m also in PA, and just getting into trout fishing. Any tips for a beginner? Do I have to go and get myself an ultralight rod and 1,000-size reel, or am I okay with a medium/medium-light and 2,000-size reel, using the appropriately light line, of course?
@@airmobiledivision7759 your 2000 reel will be just fine for starting out, best tip i can give you is dont spook the trout and fish small spinners
@@ammonpeart1587 Appreciate the advice, boss.
On the contrary, I believe the Palomar knot is a great knot for use on monofilament lines and most all lures except the very largest ones. I usually use a very small snap-swivel and tie them on with a Palomar. I dislike the Improved clinch and only use the standard Clinch knot for small flies. The Panther Martin is my very favorite spinner for trout and the one I use most for spinning tackle. I do have a big box full of Mepps as well and use them too. I have to use single hook lures for trout where I fish. Fortunately, both brands make a single hook line of their lures
Mepps, slightly smaller blade in "hot orange" colour is an absolute killer for mullet in brackish water, sea trout and wild Brownies go mental for them too.! Another enjoyable watch as usual. 👍🎣🏴
Thanks for watching
In Ireland the mepps comet with blue spots is my favourite for trout in rivers and streams
Well about time you came back to class you’re the only professor who’s has enjoyable learning videos
Heck yeah!
Remember it was rumors about Mepps was going to stop producing Mepps Aglia, then I bought 1000 Mepps Aglia Gold Red Dot size 2. Best ever, only thing I use.
The PM is one of my favorites. I also have some pretty good luck with the super dupers.
Love using both of these spinners. My favorite lures when not fishing top-water.
Heck yeah man!
My favorite way to trout fish. Love spinner fishing. I'm impressed you got them to hit that fast with the colder temps. Good job man.
I find the colder the better in my area. They are a cold water fish after all I guess. Thanks for watching!
That is true for sure. 👍
Yea The Mepps Algia #2 And the #3 Are one of my favorite baits. exspeccally if I can find Black tail.
Another great inspirational video. I like the Panther as well . You're catching some really nice size bows , you might need a bigger net soon .
Heck yeah agreed!
Love the black and yellow panther martin with the bronze
Or gold spinner. Have had great success with that lure as well as rooster tails in Pennsylvania stream.
Great video! Panther Martins, gold blade with red/yellow bodies kill em in California. I love to see them at work elsewhere.
Coast to coast!
I have literally been using Mepps for 58 years, never been disappointed with the quality or it's ability to attract fish. Not bad mouthing anyone else's product, but for me, nothing beats a Mepps.
The Panther Martin spinners seem to better induce strikes on the fall. They also create a bit stronger vibration and the blade gets fouled less with fewer parts. I rebuild the PM's using heavier stainless wire and solid brass bearing bead rather than the hollow beads used by the manufacturer. I also down size the treble hooks and pinch the barbs down for cleaner release of the trout.
I find that adding red treble hooks to my re-builds on PM's is very productive.
Awesome video! I worked in a tackleshop for many years. The two best Spinners availible in europe are Mepps Agilia and Veltic Rublex, period.
Heck yeah that's awesome!
I have been fishing creeks, rivers, lakes, ponds for ....oh ...say...about 48 years now and as far as spinners for trout, IN MY EXPERIENCES ONLY, I have had the best luck with Joe's Flies with the brown and red hair, and tied for 2nd between Panther Martins and Rooster tail. The yellow and red haired Panthers and the black Rooster Tails. Then Mepp's would be 4th. And I seem to do better with silver spinner/leaf than gold but could just be in my mind and to give Mepp's a fair shake I had so much luck with the other 3 that I haven't fished with Mepp's as much. Good video and thank you.
Thank you for the videos NRV Outdoors. I find them very educational and helpful when trying to learn more about catching trout
Heck yeah!
Thank you for replying to my comments and that's really nice
The gold spoon panther Martin is my absolute favorite!! I grew up on it. Even now living in Texas I still use it !! Love your videos!!
They're both great, Blue Fox is my favorite though.
Great video, was nice talking to you up there that day!! Your a heck of a fisherman buddy!
Thanks man! Nice meeting you too!
how come youtubers get many fish in one trip and the only tight lines I got is getting stuck at the bottom...
I like the inline spinners like Panther Martin the best. The spinner seems to spin easily. I like to throw upstream and bring the spinner downstream while barely spinning. I can get down into the deeper holes that way. I like the metal body spinners with the tuft of red felt at the hook.
Both great spinners......I catch everything on the Mepps! I like the hooks better on the mepps than the Panther Martins I feel you land more fish......great video 👍 🐟
Panther Martins have always been my go to. I have probably caught more fish with them than any other single lure. My favorite is a black body and a chartreuse blade. Not sure they make those anymore, but they are fire.
Great video! Thanks for explaining the functional differences btwn the two
Big Mepps fan, will have to venture out into the Martin it appears.
Still learning with the spinners. Like you, I enjoy the drifting, but these spinners look fun too. Thanks for the lesson!
Thanks for watching
Got a few mepps with flys attached , can’t wait to try them. Another good video brother !
They are outstanding! I considered making this video with the latest from both brands but decided to go with the old school ones first. Thanks for watching!
I love the Mappes. Catch most of my trout with golden or silver, classic and reliable. Greetings from Germany
Heck yeah man!
Yea sliver and gold I found them to work the best like I was using a sliver number 0 spinner and I bagged out in 10 mins with brook trout and there were all 15in long
Nice man. I love the orange and gold panther Martin spinner.
Heck yeah
Another good video. Joes flies are my #1 and panther martin is next in line. So much fun.
Agreed!
Panther Martin always works for me. Great video.
I like the panthers when I'm fishing deeper water. They get down deep quicker and it's easier to keep them in the strike zone. If I'm fishing faster or more shallow water, I prefer rooster tails, IMO they're unmatched in heavier current when comparing to other online spinner. Mepps is kinda the in-between do it all inline spinner. They sink a bit faster than roostertails and still functional in more shallow faster currents.
I’ve never really used either very much. I have always been a Joes Fly guy since I was a kid. Can’t wait to go pick some up and give it a try’
Heck yeah man!
Never fished a mepps but I’ve had a ton of success with a panther. Keep up the good work brother! I’m a little jealous as most of my spots are froze over until spring.
Ice fishing!! If its safe
Hey I’m not sure what u like to fish for but if u r thinking about using a mepps spinner for trout use a AGLIA LONG silver spinner and it depends on what type of trout u r going after for the size. I was using a aglia long sliver spinner for brook trout and I got my limit 10 mins in to my fishing trip and the Brook trout were all 15in long
O yea an another bonus is mepps is hand painted if u get one but if they have a squirrel tail on it might be one I shot
Good flicks. I'm a panther & joes kinda guy I've caught a lot of trout with those !
Can't go wrong with either!
Enjoy the tips. Wish our trout were all that size. But most of ours are wild and just struggle to get there.
Love both of them. They both work really well!!
Heck yeah!
Great video I have had great luck with Mepps I would love to try out the Panther Martin!!
I like the mepps spinners slot but I still prefer the rooster tails. Too much nostalgia!
What you're also forgetting to let the people know more about the Panther Martin. I fish with them. Because they are different from Mepps or any other inline spinner. Why? because they have a concave and a convex blade on them. On one side is concave and the other side is convex. And it gives it more of a thump and a stronger vibration out there that's like two or three times stronger than a regular Colorado blade and a different sound than on most inline spinners. And also the design of the body almost like a teardrop shape really makes it a lot different and moves a little different than your regular inline spinners. And they are weighted more than the regular inline spinners and shorter. So with all that being said I encourage you to test it yourself if you fish with inline spinners. I think you'll see that anymore I use more Panther Martin than I do mepps. Or any other inline spinner. Now another good one for inline spinners it's called the terminators. They have a very flexible bendable shaft on it and for the spinner. And the blades are different also. I don't know why stores don't sell them no more but I've caught big northern pike on them baths and quite a few others. As a matter of fact when I get done here I'm going to order some online. They're called Terminator inline spinners.
What do you recommend for planted rainbow in a reservoir?
Snap swivel will help with line twisting when using a spinner
Cant wait for this 🎣🏴🇺🇸✌
It's a good one!
Never disappointed ✌
I use both of them and they both work well, but which one I use depend on the water I fish in.
Joes Flies for the win but there is for sure some advantages of using differnt lures with differnt blades depending on the water your fishin
I really like both of those spinners. I agree with you on trying both colors of blades depending on weather conditions. Hope to win this time around. Randel Stuckey, 15 Willow Run, Williston, SC 29853
Heck yeah
nice video , I love fishing trout with spinners .
Heck yeah!
I have used Mepps for years
100%
You earned yourself another subscriber! I like how informative your videos are! Plus I learned the difference between Panthers & Mepps and why each has their niche. Although I think you should try the Ozark Trails brand inline spinners for trout along with the Ready 2 Fish brand also!
Great idea
You should make “Heck yea” NRV Outdoors shirts your signature saying 😂👌
Not a bad idea!
Love both of these baits for trout fishing.
Agreed!
love panther martin caught lots of fish on mapps years ago great video
Thanks for watching!
Always had really good luck with the Panther Martins in upstate NY.
Can't go wrong
Nice fish love the Panther Martins I swear on them but the maps is also good to
Everything about the video is awesome 👏 great 👍🏽 job
Thanks!!!
Nice fish.....I like my Panther Martin and Blue Fox vibrax both in gold. Will have to try Mepps Aglia next! 👍👍
Heck yeah
Mepps and panther martins are what I've found out to be the 2 best here in southwest Virginia
Agreed! I like the Joe's too
@@NRVOutdoors ive found that silver works the best on dark cloudy days and gold on sunny days
Some say opposite but I totally agree
Hey I love mepps because I live 30 mins way from were there r crafted in northern Wisconsin
Love the mepps...the limited use of panther martin...blades kept getting stuck
throw your tag ends in your pocket or backpack... otherwise great content.
i agree ! any little piece of trash in unnecesary :)
@@dextermorgan5397 that also applies to big black garbage bags... sir....
Ps: WHAT GARBAGE BAGS?I KNOW NOTHING.........
@@areyyyyyyy ;);) shhhhh
@@dextermorgan5397 Great Video.where u Based)?
Mepps size 3 with a ladybug pattern. Sadly they don't sell those patterns anymore in my area :(. I've had atleast 300 pikes in 6 years with the one spinner.
Love both of those spinners, work well in Colorado as well
Heck yeah man!
I have done great with panther martin with rainbow trout and large mouth bass with mepps
Gold Panther Martin spinner...
But 99% of the time I’m throwing a mini jig. Have been for over 25 years. Wild back country fish and stockers just can’t stay off it if fished properly. Goldens and browns love em. I have brought thousands of Eastern Sierra trout above 3lbs, including a handful around 10lbs to hand with the mini jig. Pearl white is the best.
Heck yeah man!
Some real nice size fish in the creek! Where is the general location?
Last year the Eastern Sierra had to kill millions of fish because of disease in a few hatcheries so stockings will be meager for a few seasons. Won’t affect me as I hike to fish away from crowds or fish special reg spots.
Nice channel, good vibe bro! Subbed ya.
What weight on mini jig? Other colors to include? Did you every try Berkley Atomic Tubes?
Love those lures !
Another great video. Panther Martin is one of my favorites
Heck yeah!
Probably haven't gotten either out of my spinner box since I found Joe's Flies. Now I will have to
Heck yeah man!
Great baits i would put the silver and gold blue fox in the mix as well i use them all cant go wrong with any of them
Agreed 100%
This looks so much like a creek I fish here in Missouri not sure wher you are from but I enjoy fishing these small creeks
Panther Martin baby!!! I fish the black one with yellow polka dots. It’s a trout killer.
Agreed!
Love the comparisons. Thanks!
Thanks for watching!
My favorite perch bait is Mepps Aglia E in green size 2 or 3
I wanna dish there! Those are some big trout!
Love both of these lures.
Brilliant video. What size Mepps did you use? Looks like a size 2.
Do you have more success with the black and yellow or the yellow and red panther Martin’s?
Enjoyed this video , use both lires myself for trout fishing .
Thanks for watching
Mepps always catch me a lot of smallies and perch . I need to try the painter martins
The one he has in this video is excellent. Silver blade with a yellow body and red dots is the best spinning lure I've ever used. Possibly the best thing I've ever used besides worms, honestly. Be careful though, the hooks on those things are horrible
Learn the uni. Cinch knots do exactly what the name says and cinches hard on the line. That makes it prone to cutting the line. When a uni knot is pulled the d- loop is the thing taking all the pressure instead of the wraps in the knot. Hope this saves you some fish
Great videos. I'm heading to Blue Springs next month. What would you recommend starting off with or your favorite go to bait for Blue Springs. Look forward to watching your future videos. Thanks
Everything on the channel works but the no.1 is the gulp pinched crawler on a trout magnet rig. Spinners are also hot this time of year aswell as trout magnets & trout worms. Good luck!
I love the videos keep them coming.
Will do!
I must be doing something wrong because I have had no luck with Mepps lures. Always had good luck with Panther Martin and Kastmasters.
Would like a shot at the spinners. You're spot on with your review
Thanks
Sir I got mepps I wanna knowshould I use some ele also or straight way I can use this without hiding the hooks
Never tried Panther, but used varying Mepps my concern is the use of treble hooks, which are not permitted in Alberta and BC, which is where I fish. I changed my hooks to singles, but if course there is no feathers/fur now. The flashers work, but are they are as attractive to fish than before , jm not so sure Please, please, encourage barbless single hook fishing ( far less snagged fish, nets, and fingers). Thanks
The silver and yellow and gold black panther is a legend. Mepps is good especially for stealhead and salmon in the bigger size but it's almost unfair to put any small spinner against that size panther .
Love the mepps! Thanks for more great content :)
Thanks for watching
@@NRVOutdoors man, you keep slaying them like that and I’ll be here for every one haha, you’re quickly becoming my favourite fishing channel. Where I am it’s all trout and walleye (and illegal sturgeon) so it’s nice to watch a channel where its not 20 bass for every trout 😆
I have slayed brook trout with that exact panther martin in northern Wisconsin
Heck yeah man!
Panther Martin has that vibration you can feel from your rod. If your rod feel that vibrate it mean your spinner is spinning
Wow .I use rooster tails .gotta try this out .great review and content man 💯💯💯
Thanks!
Looking into making my own but not sure where to start cause have very little money or experience
I just re-started fishing again after a 30 year lay off and these two spinners were my go to baits in the day! I have been trying to learn more modern tricks but they all seen to be based on catching stockers. Were there that many more wild fish30 yrs ago?
Wild fisheries have definitely dwindled over the years.
I wish the trout fishing was as good here in north Carolina as it is there
