Red fox tail is a prized fly-tying material known for its soft, fine texture and versatility, commonly used to craft tails, wings, dubbing, and collars in trout, salmon, steelhead, and even saltwater patterns. The underfur creates a buggy, mottled dubbing for nymph and dry fly bodies, while the longer guard hairs form sleek wings, tails, or collars that move naturally in the water without excessive flare. Its flowing fibers make an excellent substitute for marabou or craft fur in streamers and leech patterns, and it’s even favored in saltwater flies like the “Foxy Clouser,” proving its adaptability across a wide range of fly designs.
