Man I would love to get a fox, good for you! You could tell us how you were making the sets and type of bait/lure?

LOL

Asa's all call, steff's Cachottier and leggets exciter were best coyote producers and GHII and urine took the fox.

Most are flat sets - T bone from a cow spine pounded into the ground lure placed in hole in bone. Trap placed 6-8 inches pan centre from downwind side of lure. Some dirt holes but they are tough digging.

18" Superstakes - 2 swivels JC conner shockspring and a quick link. TP for pan cover and calcium chloride for antifreeze.
