Bare hunter, I checked the schedule on the demos and didn't see any specific to cage trapping bobcats. Bobcat trapping yes cages only no. One of the vendors at the Rondy is cagey bobcats. I don't know about them but have a feeling they sell cage traps for bobcats. I'm sure if you go you will learn something from them if all you do is ask.  It is at john day, oregon June 24,25 and 26. If you go to the oregon trappers web page you can get more info. It is my understanding rooms are going fast. But you can also tent camp or haul a trailer. I will be there if all goes well.
