Finally caught a couple of nice Wyoming toms.
1 has some cast on the belly but the other is really nice.

Probably going to pull sets this weekend as more snow is coming.

These 2 are getting the free ride up to Canada for the FHA auction.

MB550s with Wind River trap pans added.
Both at or near cubby sets.
Spouse missed the nicer one with his 1.75 trap but the MB 550 I set near a log held tight.

Love seeing the cat catches, post some up here too if wanted.

Nice looking toms.

Those are some nice cats!

Those 2 look huge

There has to be a whole different species for Southern bobcats. Maybe ours are midget cats? Those jokers y’all got are well fed, lol. That catch pole would need to be a foot or three longer for me with cats like that, lol! Well done!

Great job

Nice job! They look great.

Cold country cats bulk up a lot more. I grew up on the coast and a 30 pound cat was really big there. My dad hunted bobcats on the coast of Washington and Oregon for fifty years and the biggest he ever weighed was 33 lbs 12 oz. I catch ones bigger than that every year here. They aren't usually that much longer, although they do get longer, but they just bulk up a lot more. Southern cats, both southwest and southeast and those up both coasts until you get up in the cold country like Maine and British Columbia are a lot lighter and leaner built as well as being a little smaller frame.

The bigger one was on a drag, not a fan of 8 ft chains.
Spouse got the pole close and he made several mad jumps my way, pistol was at the ready, lol.

I'm beginning to think our cats are longer legged also, when we hold them up they always look huge it seems.

19 lb female. Hated to take her but the landowner wants ALL predators gone.

27 lb tom. Same ranch.

That would have been nice for breeding stock but most of my ground is kill them all ground too. Bet a taxidermist will like it.

Those Texas cats have pretty spots !!

few kitties from this yr

Caught a cat today that didn't have any ears. Looks like something bit them off.

I caught one years ago over in beaverpeeler's country that only had one ear. Looked like a birth defect, no scarring. It had the ear canal and everything internal looked normal so I assume it could hear fine, but had no external ear on that side.

Side note, I know a guy who has a similar issue, I can't remember his name, we always called him the one eared guy. lol

Some from a couple seasons ago.

Note to self.... use shorter snares for cats

Jump off the cliff or climb the tree after being snared?

Either way it looks like it might have been a challenge to recover Yes sir

I've had them up trees, but not like that. Lol.

That place looks familiar.

Climbed tree

I figured it would. Hung a few snares off your support wires. Hope you don't mind. Lol

I caught lots of cats in and around those bluffs. Of course you know that. Good to see you are making use of old materials. Nothing like a made to order set up.

Got 2 more cats today. One was dead and half eaten. Coyote must of found it, killed it and ate it. I'd put a picture of it but don't know if that's a good thing or not.

My only cat this season caught in a walk through set.

Looks like we are getting some good cat trappers on this forum.

All nice cats

Wish I knew how to post pics.

Caught my first bobcat yesterday afternoon.
Wasn't as colorful as some in these pics, but it was a big cat for this area.
I was pretty happy

Go to Google pictures, click edit, then crop then save copy. Then come back here and click on full editor, click on upload picture and when the picture shows click post. It took me awhile but it's easy once you do it a couple times. If the picture doesn't upload it is larger then 4 mb .

Here is mine.She liked “Jamesons xXx Matrix Predator Bait” enough to wear the bracelet I left for her

Grandson enjoying a kitty...

Here's a picture of my best cat this season so far. I love how chill bobcats are in a trap. They just don't care.

The one I caught yesterday was trying to get to me. It kept jumping and screaming at me. But I do love catching cats!!!!

Attempting cat pics !

Thanks for the help Spike 369. I appreciate it !

Raghorn great job on the cat.

Pretty cat Raghorn.

Beautiful cat. I love catching and seeing cats!

Thanks guys.
Pretty pleased with him.
He won't be eating any more of our chickens.
Waiting for the yotes to make a lap back around to us.

I finally caught another one today.!!!! The last one caught was December 21st

nice!!

GTA stake those drive by spots on the way to feed of a morn lefty! easier to see if have a catch. time management

I caught lots of cats along the hedge rows. Great location all the time. Natural barrier and guide area. Probably some pack rat huts nearby and cottontails.

Wow cat trapper NV that has to be the best looking cat I ever did see great job on that one ...you have to let us know what it brings if you do plan on selling it just wow

Got a nice Tom this morning. He was hiding when I walked up on him.

Couple of mine from this season. Eric

Nice. Have you noticed that there seems to be bobcat population explosion this year? Seem like they are everywhere.

Has been like that in my area for the past few years. Eric

Our population has been the opposite the last few seasons. Went from seeing at least 20 rabbits everything I'm out trapping to seeing less than that in an entire season. Lucky this season I've seen more than the last two combined so hopefully our cat population will bump up as well.

I did pick up another cat finally. Im in a new unscouted area



My best this season

I trap a lot of pasture land which is not the best cat habitat around but it's what I have permission on. I've noticed the population is down on my marginal habitat but I have jumped a few more bunnies this season. If the bunny trend continues I hoping for some better cat populations in the future.

Some pictures of the four I caught in our yard. Need to learn how to get these put up. At least that's my goal.

Nice little female.
She got a pass today !

#5 in the yard. I actually caught and released this cat last year.

Nice cats folks !!
Ours are nicely furred but narrow bellies it seems compared to these.

Last sets of the season out this weekend then we pull everything tomorrow.
We still have some beavers to deal with though, that season is still open through April.


Great pics, keep 'em coming !

Last cat for the season for us. Nice female, no mercy though on her.

On to beavers now.
