trapping bobcats

Unread postby Bowhunter4life » Wed Jan 07, 2015 8:22 am

I have several bobcat pictures on one of the properties I hunt and really want to trap one for a mount. Any advice or pointers would be appreciated cause I know nothing about trapping them really.

They spend a lot of time following turkeys and where they roost. Use visuals to your advantage such as feathers.
Hard part can be keeping other critters out with the visual aids. Classic dirt hole sets work good with a feather hanging over with fishing line.
