Have fun. Having confidence is a huge plus. Thank you! Bob J gave me some Jackpot lure I’m eager to try!

Good luck, Smash! Hopefully you’ve got some pictures for us in a few days. I’m eager for our season to open up here.

Can't wait to see what found its way onto your line and into your traps. Especially when I know the critters have moved.

K Snow said it best. Yes, I agree there have been a lot of sleepless nights over the years wondering what I’m going to have in the morning. At the same time, I’ve had mornings where I was pretty confident I would have a pretty full line and I didn’t. Looking forward to seeing a bunch of catch pictures, though.

Here is sort of a flat set I guess. I dipped the tallest twig with Jackpot lure and sprinkled some fox urine around. This other one I found this backstop of woody brush and I stuffed some sheeps wool under it and placed a smidge of early season fox lure from fur country lures; I can’t recall the name Additionally placed one DP to try the cherry scented coon grabber on a trail It was way too hot today and I kinda had to rush home to go pick up the other truck at the shop that was getting something done to the suspension. So I’m not really relaxed at all this afternoon. Plus took the dog in for bloodwork and her rabies vaccine today. A little too hectic paced for me but maybe it will all pay off in the morning! Thanks for tuning in everybody

Hope you the best Ashley. A beautiful red bouncing in the set is sight I never tire of.

Best medicine in the world is the outdoors! It IS. Was so peaceful and quiet and I love digging in the dirt and trying to think like the animal and what would attract it. Nobody bothered me and I didn’t think about anything else

Nobody bothered me and I didn’t think about anything else You talked to yourself while you were playing in the dirt too didn't you? It's ok to admit it.
I have nothing clever to put here.

^^^nice! I’m hoping for my first grey Be prepared, grey's have "attitude" when you walk up on them and are tough little boogers.

I seent one on camera occasionally. And one when I went into my blind early one day. Same area. May be the same one. I’m thankful to still see fox in general because our coyotes are outta control … if you got a gray or two in the area they’ll find your set quick
