    I got home from work and looked out the back windows and a Bobcat was walking by under the bird feeders. Really neat to see

    About $100 walking through your back yard there… could buy a TUCR quicktip!

    Maybe for a perfect pelt, skinned fleshed and dried. You are probably closer than I am though.

    If I ever get the opportunity to take one, its going to be a fully body mount. I don’t care if I have to get a bank loan to do it!

    It wasn’t my fault BK. she was fishing with my son and I when the kid picked her up and thew her in the water. He started hollering “cat fish, cat fish”. We were on the Wisconsin river just north of Merrill by Newwood campground. She swam so fast we couldn’t keep up and off she ran. she loves having her belly rubbed.

    Didn’t have a quick strike rig set up on that thing, seems like a waste of a cat to me.

    Kevin, maybe add a C note or two to that price even.
    Not to change the subject a bit but cougars are being seen on occasion down bye my ole stamping grounds around Council Bluffs, my sister down there has one checking out her llamas out.
    I guess these animals have to live some place.
    They have a trapping season in Iowa in the southern tier of counties here for bobcats.

    Castle Rock Clown I’ll try to catch her for ya but i’m not going to rub her belly. Have you really been to the Newwood Park area? I fish the river above and below the park quite often. I live on the Prarie river on the northside of Merrill.

    Its been a couple years, but I fished above grandfather dam hyw 107 and J. Otherwise I like the grouse hunting around that Conservation Ave area.

    That is a dandy. Too bad it takes 10 or so years to get a tag.
