For years, my Poppy, Milan Gaza, experimented with countless blade combinations and components in pursuit of perfecting his legendary lure, the Foxfire. After extensive testing, the setup that consistently produced was a fluted Indiana paired with a #6 Colorado blade, built on a very specific ½ oz body with trailer and skirt.
He sold these lures for over 35 years under the name “GAZ”, and they went on to catch thousands of Pike and Musky. For several anglers, the Foxfire was even the lure behind their very first 50” Musky!
So what makes it special? Likely the fact that it can be slow-rolled while still throwing off an impressive amount of vibration from the blades and trailer. It’s also an excellent starter bait, perfect for kids or spouses who are just getting into fishing.
