It took five sets this morning but I managed to smoke this fox. I set up on a drainage with heavy cover on top with pockets of open ground. A couple of minutes into the calling this fox stepped out onto a deadfall across the drainage. She stopped with some branches blocking and shots so I did some lip kissing and she stepped farther over to her right. Clearshot and down she went. Beautiful animals but the amount of fleas is incredible.

Thaks Forrest. I know finding info on hunting fox in the F&G rules is not easy but I did make sure before heading out. In case you have never caped out a fox or coyote before, Predator nation showes how to do it.
