That's a good problem to have!
Made it almost 3 years without censor!

Good going on the townfox sonny. We have the same “problem” here this year. There was even two that would scratch around my freezers and sit on the steps. There was 2. Ill reset for the other one tonight when everyone is sleeping. I have a few traps set around the edge of town too. Getting 3-4 a day. Glad I’m catching after 2 years of leaving fox alone

Sometimes I wire a bait to the tree and set my trap further back than normal. He pulls and forgets to watch where he’s stepping I guess. A second trap set blind can also do the trick. Sometimes I leave the main trap exposed and cover the second which is the one that will get him as he sees the exposed trap.

Unusual set. I call it my front yard set. Check it through the window. Best to set this one at 2am and leave it unset all day after pulling the fox out around 6-7 am.

Ryan,
That is GREAT!
Adapt to the conditions at hand!
Pete Thanks. So goes the life of the town fox trapper. I’ve caught a bunch using “town” bait like empty pizza boxes, chip bags and pop cans too.

Little dab of ukruk will bring them in for miles. Hard to beat a chunk of fish.

Nice! You catching them all in foot holds? Had a buddy up by Dead Horse that used boxes and 330's, nailed a lot of Arctic fox. Hope you make that 200 mark!
