Hey Jimmy Spencer, remember when you were riding along with me a few years back and I caught my personal record of 7 bobcats in one trap check?
Well, Donna was the good luck charm aboard the buggie today!
Caught 4 male and 3 female bobcats today to tie my personal daily record.
I was really hoping to break it!
Maybe tomorrow wink

Blessings,
Mark

I figured Michigan would have more snow. Nice catch!

Mark, are you trapping Michigan or Texas? That to me is an incredible amount of cats for a day. Four is our best day here in Utah, which we have accomplished several times. We do use a fair amount of Widowmaker . Whose bait do you use? laugh

You're wearing a short sleeve shirt so I'm assuming Texas? Are Texas cats worth anything fur wise?

Awesome pic! I wish we were allowed just one of those in Indiana. Thick as ticks where I live.

Texas cats from this region often grade southwestern so yep, they have a nice return on effort. We don't trap for fur money per se, but we skin and sell everything we can along the way.

Keep trucking on .

My best is 5 also and only did it twice. Have only caught one double at a gap in a hedgerow. Both adult Toms. Made coyote sets on each side of the gap. I dont often set multiple sets for cats. I always thought it a waste of time and traps as I rarely see multiple sets of cat tracks unlike coyotes.

Pretty cool Mark.
