Big bobcat

[wytx]

Caught our biggest bobcat ever last weekend. Trail set that had been blown up by a badger we caught earlier.
Big pot belly on him and the spouse checked out the contents, a raccoon.
He weighed 39 lbs and stretches 47 inches. Not sure on the belly grade but we'll keep and tan it if he doesn't bring a good price.

Lets see those big bobcats and some lynx too, Moose83 started us out right with his pic.

That’s a big cat. I got one in Mississippi a few years ago. He was 34 lbs. biggest I have ever seen until yours. Great job!

I called in and shot a 38.5lb tom several years ago. I got a full body mount done.

Laramie that is a great mount. Who did it for you ? Not many taxis get cats right and they sure did !
We don't get many spotted backs in our trapping area.
We'll put out some more sets and keep at 'em till about late Jan. or so.

This nice tom is in limbo at FHA till their April auction. he went over 30 lbs too and was nice and long but not near the pot belly.

I agree, it's hard to find good cat taxidermists. I shopped for a long time until I found Todd. He is a world champion... and you do pay for that. My cat was a custom form that I had him create. I had the pose and posture in mind and Todd was able to do it exactly how I wanted.

Sold our furs yesterday. Coyotes brought decent money and the bobcats were low but not terrible.
Coyotes brought $40 and $60 each and the cats brought $150, 175 and $250.

Got this big bobcat years ago. Sold the pelt to NAFA in Montreal for $600

I told myself I was gonna shoot one this year because I was watching some last year when hunting but this deer season I didn’t see a single cat.

Got a lucky archery kill on a big Iowa bobcat a couple years ago. Full body mount turned out pretty awesome.

Before we had an official season on bobcats we would collect accidental catches on bobcats and skin them out and distribute to nature centers, any cat over 30 lbs is a big bobcat
