At least once a season I get a red fox that thinks it can stick its head in a cubby. This is a young male, although I have caught some big mature fox in cubbies in the past. Caught a skunk in this spot a few days ago (what the cubbies are set for) so the area is really skunked up. It was a nice surprise to find the red today.

Nice job, looks like a good fox.

What're you using as bait to attract skunks to the cubby?

The body grip is a 220 which is 100% legal in KY, and it is set on my farm where there should not be any dogs running. The red fox here are not huge, I have caught quite a few in 160s both in cubbies and in trail sets.

Massac, that cubby is up by our ducks and is baited with old eggs and a smokey-fishey-meaty bait I make called Triple Threat.
