Fox are easy if numbers are up,..I wouldn't get to caught up figuring how to obtain success . Harvest numbers are short and have been. ( no ones) trapping!
You want fox? Dig a hole,. deep,. make him/her work the reward,..repeat.

PSB can make any trapper feel insecure about his fox catch numbers.

I think I miss my Trap Shed set up from the past more than anything. Was my attic that my Brother In Law and myself cleaned out, threw in a couple of large windows and sheetrocked. My furnace and clothes dryer were up there so always had heat during winter. fur prices were pretty decent too.

Some areas have alot more fox then other areas.Where I lived growing up most people could catch a couple.The best trappers caught around 20 to 30.That would be a good days catch in some states.
