Look like it has a long tail to me. I don't think it's a bobcat.

Agreeing with ^. The light off the fur is also showing the difference in color tone on its back. That tail is only probably 6in. Have caught plenty of big toms with tails that long. If it was a long tailed cat such as lion I'd say the base of the tail would be much fatter to support the longer tail. The ears also look narrow compared to a lions.

The tail length would be a dead give away but can't see anymore of it. A bobcat tail can be 7 inches long so not sure there is enough tail exposed to tell that way.

If I had to guess I say bobcat.

You'd have to squint pretty darn hard to see anything other than a bobcat.

The girth at the tail base alone gives it away as a bobcat. Not to mention the white behind the ear and belly spots...

At first glance I though lion also. But face a bit two blunt and ears appear pointed whereas cougar are more rounded. Also base of tail not thick enough for long tailed lion. Thus I say bobcat.

I think bctomcat stated it very well.The spot behind the ear looks too light to be anything but a bobcat.It is very long and a I would say it is a very big one.I can't see the tail butt well enough but I can tell you,lion tail bases vary from 6.5" to 9" in circumference.That is from small to huge.Personally,I would rather have a large,male bobcat on my line than a mountain lion,any day.You should eventually get more pictures.Hopefully,they will be more clear.
