Description
The Foxy Fry was developed to succeed on Japan’s pressured waters, but even American anglers who frequent power-fishing hotspots sometimes need to downsize and “convince” the fish to bite. This total performance shad style minnow can eke out limits when fishing gets tricky, but it’s also a big fish attractor.
At first glance, it may look like a diminutive jerkbait, but this lure is unique because it has deadly action and appeal at any retrieve speed–from a slow twitch to a lightning-fast burn. It maintains its natural tracking and never rolls.

Action
The Foxy Fry has a fixed weight system that provides additional castability over abait with a weight transfer. The precision weighting also provides balance andmakes the lure suspend at rest with its nose down. It is ideal for twitching, jerking,or a pump retrieve. It works at any retrieve from dead slow to burning it.
The best results are in the back of the creeks and up the rivers thrown around wood, stumps, and rocks. The Shaker is an excellent lure for getting reaction strikes when nothing else seems to be working.
Recommended Line and Gear
Use it on a medium to medium-light crankbait rod with a 5:1 or 6:1 gear ratio reel ,whichever you prefer and use it on 8 to 12-pound fluorocarbon line, and watch it fill your live well up.
“It’s a deep diving jerkbait and a crankbait rolled into one,” said professional anglerMichael Murphy. “In the early, early spring, you can fish it slowly. It gets down deepin a hurry and presents a small packagethat those fish haven’t seen before. Then,you can use it more like a crankbait when it warms up. It’s also a killer aroundriprap.”
Recommended Line and Gear
The lightweight bait is best when fished on spinning tackle for maximum distance.You can fish it on 4 to 10-pound fluorocarbon or with a braided line to afluorocarbon leader.
