I’ve used the Foxee Dog on several steelhead runs in the Pacific Northwest. It casts well and attracts fish consistently, especially in cold water. The blend of natural and synthetic materials gives it a lifelike appearance that keeps fish interested.

Great pattern for both summer and winter fishing. It swings smoothly and works well in current. I noticed it performs better when the water is moving, which is common in my local streams.

The Foxee Dog is a reliable choice for spey fishing. I’ve used it for over a year and it still holds up well in both still and moving water. The design is simple but effective.
