Not a bad price. Thanks Trapper155.
As for calling bobcats, 1 thing with mouth calls (which I like) is that the sound is coming from myself, potentially leading the bobcat right to me, but if I move at all it might see me easier than if I had a remote caller.

Good luck a week isn't a long time but I have proven to be a lot better cat trapper than cat hunter. I do remember calling a cat that had obviously laid down on the trail I walked in on because after about 10 mins of calling the thing was squared down not 20 ft from me. It just seemed to appear out of nowhere

We can’t use e-callers here for cats, only mouth calls. E-callers make it to easy I guess. If e-callers made it too easy, everyone in the states that allow them would fill their tags every year . ..and I can assure you that doesnt happen. Ask me how I know Apparently we have a rather large population of cats because you can set an e-caller out and turn it on and before you even get to your stand a cat is there, lol. This happens on every call setup.

I will, mostly. But may supplement it w/ hunting. Call areas where you have traps.
Give an illegal alien a fish and he eats for a day. Deport him and you never have to feed him ever again!

I'm guessing lots of cats are called in without being seen. Day or night a thermal scanner is a big plus.
