I'm new to trapping and love it already...Tomorrow I was thinking about putting a couple fox sets up, and heres what I would like to know;What would you say the most productive way for this time of year is? What scents lures? I have some #1.65CS are they ok for fox?
Also about the stakes how would you set the stakes? I know this is alot to ask, any help will be greatly appreciated thanks  :D

Your 1.65s will be just fine for fox.Dirt hole,flat set,post ses all work well.
 Gland lures,call lure,urine are best bets.Assorted baits also help.
 May I suggest you pick up a couple good books,trapper and predator caller magazine is also a good investment.
 Any more questions,please ask.

Forgot about stakes,what type do you have?rerod or cable??
 Remember coyotes are always a possibility,stake well so you dont lose everything to a yote.
