Personally never got a Fox or otter in DP. www.lenonlures.com www.facebook.com/lenonlures

I have them hitting the holes now, as soon as deer season slows this week I will be putting them in the ground. Push pull or push traps are easier to get them than pull only. a few can be caught but foot traps and snares are still a lot more productive.
