I've had alot of luck catch ****, rats, and mink using a #1 coilspring. I dont' think that it would work very well on fox. I predict alot of toe catches
I've caught a few in #11 longsprings, which have roughly the same jawspread as a #1 coil. However, the design of a longspring allows much more holding power than the little #1 coilspring models do.
Toe catches are a possibility, though. Fox have relatively large feet for their body size.
Number 1 1/2 coils with 1.75 next are your traps of choice for fox.I've caught quite a few in #2 coils but I think 1 1/2's are better for straight Fox work.
