When I have the equipment, the set gets two traps. One down wind the other up wind side.

That said, after watching numerous videos of their performance when they commit, I don’t think it matters.

Cool! Thanks for sharing that!

so...one MORE question [I see a trend developing]... do you re-lure after the fox chews the heck out of the top of the post? or does the spit complement what's left of your initial lure application?

Thanks!

interesting how in that last video the fox was more interested in getting at the gland lure than addressing the trapped foot. great footage thank you

Sometimes the end of the stick is chewed off, when it happens I add new lure. If not, I remake and just punch the stick back in.

Good video showing what fox do to gland lure. Chin rub and lick/bite.

That's a pretty cool set up you worked out there and I see what you mean about it not matter what side they come in from. They step everywhere!

I wonder if coyotes would work a set up like that in that way? Somehow I don't think they would.

Lol. I’ve been thinking why would a fox want to bite, lick, chew, otherwise eat gland lure.? But I will put some 1080 on a tall stick next trapping season and see how the coyotes work it.

I like that reaction at hole sets especially chin rubbing. Really gets their snout down the hole and feet where they should be.
