What kind of drag is it home made
@jeromycooley-outwestadvent57905 ай бұрын
Yep. I make all my own drags. I’ve tried lots of different types and ideas. I’m still experimenting with them, but I’ve got a design made out of #4 rebar that works great so far. Good luck!

@jeromycooley-outwestadvent5790 Жыл бұрын
You know Dennis, I’m not sure if that would work or not… I trap coyotes in the sage brush, so I’m not sure if they would shy away from sawdust, or not. It wouldn’t be real natural to their normal smells, but then again it would be natural in a forest type setting. I definitely would try it for bobcats. I’m sure it would work great for that. As far as being freeze proof, I think you would have to do something with it to keep it from freezing once it got wet… It would be interesting to experiment with.

What are your favorite lures and baits for bobcats?
@jeromycooley-outwestadvent5790 Жыл бұрын
My absolute favorite is Powder River from O’gorman. I use the powder river for both lure, and bait, even though technically I think it is sold as bait. My second favorite would be my homemade castor lure.

Been watching so many of your vids. I’m in Idaho outside of Boise. Last year was my first year and did ok, I get such a thrill from trapping but it can be overwhelming to get started and have success from where to go, what to look for etc. really want to get into because of my 3 boys. I’d there any place to find good resources or mentors?
@jeromycooley-outwestadvent5790 Жыл бұрын
The trapping community as a whole is a pretty welcoming community as far as I know. I would contact the Idaho Trappers Ass. They would be able to point you in the right direction I’m sure for mentors. If you can’t find anything, then let me know I’ll make some calls, and see what I can find for you. My nephew traps in Riggins, and I can maybe get you set up with him. If nothing else come spend a weekend in Oregon with me, and I’ll help as much as I can.

I’m trapping in Utah bobcats. Is location everything looking for toilets scratch’s??????
@jeromycooley-outwestadvent57902 жыл бұрын
The best place to start for me is to rimrocks, river beds, steep washes. I usually find scat trees and go from there. The benefit of a scat tree is you know they are in the area. You can usually find a set location by determining/guessing what direction they are traveling. Although I did catch two bobcats today in coyote sets, that were not scat trees. Stay tuned for my next bobcat video coming up. I will go over some ideas on this topic. Thanks for the comment!

@jeromycooley-outwestadvent57903 жыл бұрын
I tried to pull him out the bottom and he got stuck in between the rocks. I pulled the trap off to try to get him up through the top crack, but it was too small for me to fit into. Mike then went down below, and I was on top with a stick, working together we dislodged him. I grabbed the phone, and went back down below to video him dragging him the rest of the way out. The whole story was pretty odd, but I have no reason to try to make anything up. Thanks for watching the video!
