[QUOTE="JhnDeereMan, post: 5222201, member: 21586"] My quick analysis….your set is blocking the cat in too much. The back end is too closed off. You also have too much blocking in the sides. It doesn’t look natural like a couple small limbs that might have fallen out of a tree would look. My goal at each set whether coyote or bobcat is to only be at the set for less than 2 minutes making it. (This is with two people…one bating and luring and one setting the trap) Every minute you are there you are laying down a lot of scent. That cat you have a pic of is just passing through/hunting that area. It looks very wide open. It is coming from a thick area where it lives. You need to be on that transition to set your trap. Right up next to the thick stuff. I always dip the end of the wing/feather in a little bit of lure as well. Good news about your situation is you have a cat there in the area. Not all places are cat areas. Some places just don’t suit them as well as coyotes. I would take the camera down as well. Cat knows it’s there. I guarantee it. [/QUOTE]
