Default RE: Bobcat ???'s

personally, I would still hunt using decoys and calls. I do not hunt with dogs, but I may want to try it someday. Coyotes are easier to draw out with calls, but bobcats respond too. Bobcats will stalk carefully and will keep a close eye out for danger so a decoy will be a must for them. Try using a squirrel skin stuffed with cotton, works for me. Tie a small cord or fishing line to it and give it a tug when you think you see a target regardless what species. It will see the decoy assuming it is a real injured squirrel and it will trigger an impulse to just go get it. Just remember, squirrel decoy, squirrel distress call or mouse distress. Don't try using a squirrel decoy with a fawn distress call. Mouse sqeaukers/squirrel distress work better on bobcats and fox in my opinion. Coyotes tend to like rabbits and fawns.
Hope this helps some
