[QUOTE="hammer33, post: 5792117, member: 19900"] A little bobcat story and a set. Last year I went to check a DP trap. When I got there, the trap was gone but there was a big pile of leaves. Kicked the pile open and there was a dead coon with his foot in the dp, partially eaten. Hmmm What would do that? .... Bobcat. Got a couple 550s and set one on each side of the pile of leaves and recovered the coon. Bam. Next day I had a big tom in the trap. So essentially it was like a hay set only with a pile of leaves. I also caught a nice bobcat in a haybale set we made for a coyote who was crossing a cut field each morning as I left for work. My conclusion is that bobcats like piles of stuff to investigate. Consider making a hay set baited with some roadkill or one of your other catches. [/QUOTE]
