Bob Cat and lynx sets; If you can uase snares they work better then traps and are much more human.

Your bait should not be seen by birds from the air,

Re: bobcat trapping
Large cubby[url][/url]s work well when the snow comes, I like a snare at each end and on the trails coming in and around the cubby

Re: bobcat trapping
We run cages because most of the places we trap we run lions in also.

Re: bobcat trapping
Tell me about the cages you use, the size and type of wire.

Re: bobcat trapping
Their home made 18" x 18" x 48". We really just use what ever wire is available alot of chain-link but we try to use mainly the 1" x 1" square rabbit wire. The ones made of chain-link are way to heavy but built correctly and there's no cat gonna break out! My partners dad makes his a bit bigger ( 24" x 24" x 55" ). But the down side to that size: he caught 7 lions last year!

Re: bobcat trapping
nvlion_hunter- Tell me about the design of your traps. What's your trip-mechanism like? I've never trapped before besides a store-bought live trap for coon. I'm very interested in trying to live trap a bobcat for my pups.. In the past I've just worked on caged coon and cat hides.. Love to show them the real thing..
