Well I spent my very abbreviated season focusing on getting and making unique videos for an end of the year "how I do it video". I have some amazing video to put together very soon. Here's a teaser clip. Please subscribe to my channel to see it when it comes out.
already subscribed, already watched, already commented and liked :tup:

:tup: I started running two cages per set late in the season for this reason, have got some interesting interactions on film as well. Picked up two big ol Tom’s side by side last year
-
Very cool video clip! I’m looking forward to the final video.
-
Was that a second Bob outside the cage? Cool video.
-
Awesome video. I may need to invest in more traps if each set is going to take two
-
Awesome, thanks for sharing!!!
-
Great Video. :tup:
Was the camera inside or outside of the cage?

When I know 2 cats are working the bait I will definitely set 2 traps. It works well and I've had doubles doing that in the past. However I'm thankful that I didn't know the bigger cat was there or I may not have gotten all the great video. The camera is attached to the cage on the outside. And let's just say I'm thankful I have a great job that allows me to purchase multiple cameras. :chuckle: :chuckle: :chuckle:

Yep

Awesome pics! For a shorter season you did really well.

This is good stuff. Curious, what are the weights of some of the larger cats you get? We had one hanging around our house a few years back that was huge. Even walked across the deck one day.

Yes, praise the Lord I'm grateful! Had exactly a 75% success rate on traps I set again this year. And of those, 50% were caught within 2 hours of setting the traps.

This has been an interesting study. Out of my last 50 cats only one has gone over 30. Most mature toms are in the 20 to 28 pound range. They look bigger than they really are. Ever picked up an owl? Kind of the same. :chuckle:

3 nails been wondering where you been I have enjoyed the videos of the bobcats see you have changed your choice of sidearm anyways during the covid crisis I took the online trapping course and passed it purchased a tomahawk bobcat trap last year didn't get. chance to use it this year because of my job but next year will be a different story what I am looking to do is trap one or call one in and harvest it would rather trap it so I can really get a good look at it would like to get it mounted and hang it on the wall have you had any of your cats mounted after you harvest them do you just tube them when you skin them I guess what I am asking here is if you do a full life size mount how do you skin them out

Congrats on a great season, your pictures make me have an even stronger dislike for members of the female gender

I don't post much on here anymore as tech isn't my strong point and what I was posting wasn't drawing much interest. The video I posted barely scratches the surface of what I've got the last couple of years. Some really good stuff to come once I learn how to edit video. :yike: Good observation on the sidearm! So many lions working my sets I decided to start packing the 10mm. Look me up next season if you'd like some help. All my cats are tubed and tanned or rugged. I'd never mount one as they cost too much, collect too much dust, and just generally look retarded. :chuckle: My wife is going to start making some cool garments with them but until then they are cluttering up the place.

What a terrible problem to have. I feel for you.

I've learned a tremendous amount about cat behavior the last couple of years by running so many cameras. I can't wait to share everything. Just need to learn to edit better.
