The whole idea behind using a rub lure to catch bobcats, was invented by trappers who did not know how to properly guide a bobcat's foot at a set. Cleve, please name those inventors, or were you just assuming the origin. Many respected lure makers offer a rub lure.

Ok I'm going to give my reason for using that type of a set a lot . 1 I have tree everywhere growing anywhere 6" to a foot a part. Put in line travel of a cat in combination of a couple of lures, rub other wise, urine if wanted. 2nd reason( shelter) lots of snow here getting foot dump at a time more each day for days on end calls for the next reason. Big trap 3or 4 size trap to reach thru a lot of snow after snowfall. Not for catch cat but to fight deep snow. On snowfalls I look at it like you stick a 1or2" block on the pan. 3.all I am concerned about is cat in the trap. When I get there. 4 .there are other set and do use them but deeper the snow , more that type of set produces using the cats natural habit of walking in the least amount of snow possible. Hope it helps.

Red I think I would quit if I had to deal with that white stuff.
Shot 72 today and won some money. Anyone else play golf?
ML I play but you're out of my league if you're shooting a 72. Good job Mercer! Now back to bobcat trapping....
