Yo, I had the same issue when I was learning golang how to use forward proxy. What worked for me was setting the `HTTP_PROXY` env variable. Just do:
```bash
export HTTP_PROXY=http://your-proxy:port
```
Then your Go code will automatically pick it up. For local testing, I used [Charles Proxy](https://www.charlesproxy.com/). It’s super easy to set up and debug.
Good luck!
