 Lenons fox lures will work on both reds and greys.Castor based beaver lures will also work on canines.

Beside Lenons lures  a early season lure that works good on greys is a fruit based lure as greys really like their fruits.  Later on as season progresses  gland type lures work well.

Rd Fx:  Did you ever try Muskrat Super All Call on early season fox, its sweet and intense as you know.  I have a grocery bag full of testimonials from trapper using the rat lure on fox, especially grey fox. Ace

Asa
I've used your families lures since the mid 70s and Fox Super All Call was my best cold weather lure. That was back before mange when I still had fox on my line to trap.  I still have several of your lures in my bag of tricks and years ago, I caught my first gray fox using your Fox All Call.
Could that be the reason that when you post something I want to run right out and try it??
I consider myself among your loyal customers.
Thanks for sharing your knowledge.

Thanks for your comments Mac, I appreciate hearing them! Thanks too for using Lenon lures, always appreciate that too! Another grey fox killer I've been hearing great things about all Winter is the Bobcat Nature's Call. Asa
