If you're near a natural travelway they'll investigate the dirthole and even fresh meat has an odor. Make another set 10' away and see what happens.

That's kinda why I was hoping someone had tried it but unless I let it taint I don't think it'll have much drawing power. But I'm just guessing exactly rm,,also fur from around the anus in a small dirthole will draw. Then its fox "lure".... I havent used fox meat.

For me lightly tainted fox meat in dirt holes worked well for fox and coyote. At first I wondered about using fox meat for fox, but they liked it.

Minker do you just let it taint for a bit or do you and something to it?
I'm not minker. When it gets to the stage you want add sodium benzoate to stop the tainting and glycerine oil or propylene glycol as anti-freeze. If you want to, check the Trappeman Lure Formulators forum for more information.
