Caught him in a Bridger 1 1/2.
I was using my homemade bait and some pepperoni.
I used beaver and muskrat lure.
The reason I trapped him was because him or another fox was getting into our chicken tractors and killing and/or eating our chicks.

Way to go Myside.

Congrats myside!

Way to go!!

Perfect ! And a perfect use of pepperoni too ...can't take that grease from it on pizza

congrats

I remember my first one. I bout fell over when that red head popped up over that bank and looked at me. Congratulations!

Good job!

Gotta love that first red. Good job

Awesome. I caught my first fox 27 years ago, and I still remember every second of it,

Now you've gone and done it, you left the biggest kept secret out on what bait to use for fox. Congratulations on catching it. Don't tell anyone about anchovies.

Good job young man! Like others have said, I'm not too old to remember my first one too! I was 12 when I caught my first, and a coyote the next day in the same trap! Memories!

Congrats

Good job kid!
I remember my first fox, beautiful red and big ole Male too. Had two coyotes also that day but the first red really sticks out in my memory. I was always amazed at how something that orange and colorful laying in the bed of a pickup didnt seem so bright and colorful when I laid it down on the dead winter grass and oak leaves next to our home. It was more Camo'd than that it appeared, nature has a great way of putting creatures in places where they do the best. Coyotes blend in well in tall dead grasses, foxes look like they do well in a forested oak leaf floor in fall.
