You’re the man !! Very nice information. Everyone needs to know. And you’re right about the cats versus rats. But if you don’t set for them you won’t catch them. And a pond dam is always my favorite set. 2 sets on each dam. I’d like a comment on your brand and Modle of your drone. Very nice pictures and wondering when your season is over ? Keep up the good work buddy !!
Hey Tom! My drone is a DJI Mini Pro. It works pretty good for the cost. I wish it had a little further reach. Our bobcat season in Oregon goes from December 1 through February 28. Thanks for the comment!
@@jeromycooley-outwestadvent5790 I’ll check it out. I had a short season this year first time in like 25 years. But got to go for like 14 days Yotes wasn’t worth catching for the money this year Just seen an auction here in Kansas and the avg was $6. I saved all mine and tanned them all. But looks like you a good season and jack is growing like a weed. lol.
I am in about the same type of country living in southwestern Idaho terrain is very close in the Owyhee mountains to the area you are trapping. Water is a little less accessible in some areas but pretty much the same> I have learned a lot from you Jeromy a whole lot, thanks loads.
@@brandonward89 that’s awesome! It snowed a little in my neck of the woods today. I’m getting ready to go for another season. Good luck to you on your trapline this year
Love the content you provide looking forward to your newer stuff. I'm in Southwestern Wyoming looks close to your environment. Struggling to get my 1st cat though.
@@lanceball6775 I’ve spent a little time in Wyoming. It is my favorite state. I’ve been to Rock Springs to do a demo at the NTA Regional Convention a couple of years ago. I loved that area. Everything from about Pinedale south to the freeway looks awesome. I wish you the best of luck!
Hey Mike! I sure like the rocks for bobcats. It’s not the only place to catch them, but it is a good place for me to start looking. Thanks for the support! I appreciate it
Very cool to watch buddy! Those were nice big bobcats! I really like the looks of your sets! Thank you for sharing and Good luck with everything my friend!
Just found your channel sir.... awesome content in some beautiful country. Which brings me to my question... where are you out of? Its beautiful! Dustin White
@@DustinTorry7 Hey Dustin! Glad you found the channel. I’m in eastern Oregon. It’s a high desert type of climate. Most of my traplines are between 3,000-5,000 feet elevation. I appreciate the view and the comment!
Love the video. What is your cable drag setup? I want to get into using some drags instead of always staking hard. Do you always use cable or do you use chain also? What kind of length and sizes on the cables? Thanks
Hey Brent. Probably 90% of my cats sets are on a drag, because I can’t get a stake in the rocks. I have both cable and chain, but I lean towards cable because it’s way cheaper. It works almost as good as chain. My cables are usually about 10’ long. I prefer using a juniper branch for the drag, but a rock that’s cradled real good works too. I do have about 40 drag hooks. All of them are different types of steel drags. I’m still trying to come up with a good, cheap steel drag. When I do I’ll show it on the channel.
@@jeromycooley-outwestadvent5790 perfect thank you. A lot of my places I can stake pretty easily but some are hard clay and then when things get frozen solid some drags would be handy. I hope you do come up with a good homemade drag! Thanks again for the help and info
I'm just curious. On the dry cave set you did at the first half of the video why did you set in front of the cave instead of between the 2 rocks before the cave? Very different country than what im use to. I do love those walk through sets. Two giant cats for sure wow. Super great video.
That would be a great spot to set between those rocks. The only reason I didn’t, was because of the snow. We can get a foot or more of snow in this area, and I leave my sets all season. It’s just less maintenance, and I don’t have to worry if my set is still working. Great question. Thanks for the comment!
@@devinnpickens5509 I use underalls. It’s basically a soft craft foam you can buy at Walmart. It comes in a large roll, and I cut them into sizes to fit under my pans 1-1/2”x2-1/2”. You can also buy them at trapping supply stores already cut to fit. Rumors fly around that they freeze if they get wet, but I’ve used them for years and never had a single issue. It’s definitely a personal preference thing. Pan covers catch as many animals as underalls most of the time. Good luck!
@@Mbrown91187 I’ve trapped a lot of public land. I try to stick to private land now. People have me do predator control for them and I don’t have much time for public land trapping.
@ I’m just getting started and looking to get on some cat and coyotes. I’m out here in the grants pass area. Ever heard of people having much luck out here?
@ I don’t have any background in that area. I wish I could help out. I do have a friend in Central Point that used to run my traplines with me years ago. I’ll give him a call and see what he knows.
Kinda sad some of Oregon’s prime land was gabbled up before it could be turned public, and then most people in Oregon are stuck up and won’t let anyone on their land even the good guys
Hahahahahahh. I had to cut off some of the footage for time constraints, but he was growling and hissing. He took several swipes at me when I was trying to get him killed.

That’s how it’s done folks! Fantastic sets, fantastic results. Another great job of showing how it’s done Mr Jeromy. Wish I had country like that.
Thanks Dale! I’d trade some of this Oregon country for that Wyoming country….especially the political end. Hahahah. Thanks for watching
Great video. Enjoyed watching
Thanks Chip!

@@georgenourse2328 that is a very beautiful and rugged country. I do appreciate the positive feedback. Thank you
Man those were some biiig cats ! Awesome stuff my friend . Awesome seeing Jack out there again too . Hope everyone is doing well !
@@tubbyguyoutdoors Hey Wyatt! Glad to hear from you. I hope all is well for you also!
I love watching your videos. It gets me excited to go trapping every winter!

Really great video Jeromy , I struggle on where to set for cats at times. This helps greatly. Hope the family is well , take care.

Awesome information and tutorial as always Jeromy ! Thanks for sharing your knowledge
Hey Wyatt! I hope you’re doing good. Glad to hear from you!
@@jeromycooley-outwestadvent5790 doing ok my friend . My apologies for not being around. Hope you and the family are well
Some really great information with some awesome catches great video man thanks for bringing us along
Thanks James! I appreciate the comment
Very cool to watch buddy! Those were nice big bobcats! I really like the looks of your sets! Thank you for sharing and Good luck with everything my friend!
Thank you for your support Mark. I appreciate it
Great video Jeremy...thank you !!
Thanks for watching!
Some great lookin cats Jeromy! Nice job on your walkthroughs 😊🔥👍👍
Thanks Craig!
Those are some fine cats and some fine country !!!! Enough to make a southern feller mad !!! 🤣
Hahahahahah. Come on out west anytime… it may be a little cold in the winter, but the cats sure like it b
Very good tutorial on bobcats with specific locations. I never pass on a stock dam. Every critter checks them for prey species, even if they are dry.
Totally agree Russel. It’s a great spot. Thanks for the view

great job man, way to go!!!.. wish I could see this In person, on how to physically do these set
Hey Tom! Come on out west and I can show you anytime you want to
Ok, I'll get in touch this next fall for a weekend
Sounds good Tom!

I used some 3/32 cable at first, but I’ve switched to 1/8”. It holds better if you end up with a big cat.

What are you putting under the pan?
@@devinnpickens5509 I use underalls. It’s basically a soft craft foam you can buy at Walmart. It comes in a large roll, and I cut them into sizes to fit under my pans 1-1/2”x2-1/2”.

Do you do any public land trapping or do you mainly stick to private?

@ thank you, looking to get with someone and follow along and get some pointers as well
Kinda sad some of Oregon’s prime land was gabbled up before it could be turned public, and then most people in Oregon are stuck up and won’t let anyone on their land even the good guys
That last one was not very happy,

Ban trapping
