Planning a trip to LBL next month here in Ky and im am planning on targeting bobcats. I have yet to have any luck with them yet and i will be in timber for these four days we are hunting and ive never tried inside of timber for bobcats. Any tips for hunting them in timber? Is it like i would do with coyotes minus wind concern? I use a foxpro with a foxjack attatched if that helps.
Timber bobcats??

I dont know about cats since we can't shoot them here in IL but I have hunted LBL archery deer and seen them. Watch your call levels (volume) and dont be afraid to try some different calls. I might consider having a partner with a shotgun on some of those areas off the Trace.
Given the up/down terrain of LBL I would try and aim my caller up a cut if possible with the wind in your face.....
Good luck.
Are you going to stay on the KY side ?
Just my thoughts.

I would locate the Turkeys, chances are if the timber is holding birds then there will your cats be also.
I killed a large male last spring Turkey season with a Cluck N Purr. Called him in within 8 steps. He's being mounted now

An excerpt I wrote for something else, hopefully it is helpful...
Bobcats are beautiful and wondrous creatures. Cats like thick areas of brush near a water source. Brushy overgrown fields, cedar glades, pine thickets, creek bottoms, rocky bluffs, old ponds or lake edges are all prime places to find bobcats. They prey on all sorts of small animals including wild turkeys. At times bobcats may even include deer in their menu. The more common fare is rabbit, mice, squirrels, and any birds they can catch. Cats love birds! They’ll pass up a fat rabbit for a stalk on a song bird. Here’s a tip - if you are a predator caller fast, high pitched birds sounds, or high pitched cottontail are prime cat sounds.
Bobcats have a short attention span and get distracted easily. They may be on the way to the call, but if the sound stops for too long and they see something else like a bird, they’ll often just wander off or sit down and quit coming in. Tip - don’t have too long of a pause between series of calls if you are a caller.
Cats hunt most with their eyes and ears. Not to say bobcats completely ignore their nose, but I’ve had bobcats directly downwind and even though I know they had a snoot full of human scent, they never batted an eye. A coyote would have been long gone in that situation! Another tip - if you are a caller, a small moving decoy will help focus the cat away from you and tends to keep them fascinated on the decoy. Something as simple as a small cluster of feathers tied into a low hanging bush fluttering in the breeze will do the job.
Cats are stalkers and may take a long time to get to a calling stand. Most coyotes are onto a stand within 15 - 20 minutes, but a cat may take as much as an hour. They are extremely hard to see when they stalk into a stand. They use all the available cover to get close. I’ve been diligently watching as I called and suddenly realized, “Oh crap, there is a cat!“ when some little something catches my eye from a tuft of tall grass, or from behind an old stump, log, or rock clump. I never know how long they’ve been there before I actually saw them. Many a caller has stood up at the end of an hour long stand and jumped a bobcat that was right in front of them they had never seen. Bobcats have phenomenal eyesight and will pick apart a stand as they creep in. Fidgeting around by the hunter has saved many a cat. You must sit still and not be moving or else your chances are very low. They will also hear the slightest rustle in the leaves or creak, bump, ect. Quiet is important.
With all that said, bobcats don’t always slip into the calling stand. I have had them run into a stand as aggressively as any coyote I’ve ever called. In fact, the first cat I ever called was a huge old tom that nearly ran me over, sliding to a stop in the snow only a few yards from me. Sometimes they come hard and fast and that is a special sight.
Bobcats aren’t all that bright though. As mentioned, they will often ignore a snoot full of human scent. Their natural defense is to hide and I’ve watched them hunker down and attempt to hide, all the while shooters fire at them and miss repeatedly. I’ve seen a shooter miss a bobcat twice with a .308 blowing snow and debris all over it, and the cat simply lay low when it could have easily ran off the backside of the ridge. I talked the shooter down and his third shot connected. Another similar time a fellow shot three times with a .12 gauge shotgun and No. Four Buckshot, again blowing snow and leaf debris all over the cat. The cat never moved and I finally shot the cat as the other guy was trying to stuff shells into his pump gun.
Populations of bobcats can be wide spread. Even where there are a lot of them, there aren’t many.

Put the caller in an area where the cat has to move into your field of view to see the sound. slightly down in a ravine with you above scanning the edges probably be a good tactic in that type of terrain. Bobcat is a total visual game. The worst sets are where the cat has cover and a sight advantage from a distance. They'll likely just sit up there until your done without you knowing he was ever there.
^^^^One of the best tutorials on bobcat hunting I've ever read, Gary! You've helped put lots of cats in jeopardy with that one.

When targeting cats, I always let the call run continuously, usually bird sounds. I might occasionally alternate back and forth to baby cottontail or other high pitched bird or bunny noises.....or not. The faster and more frantic, the better.
This guy was stalking my FoxPro and decoy about 20 yards in front of my well hidden stand when he caught the very slight movement I made bringing the camera into action in his peripheral vision and was distracted. He lacked only 10' reaching the call/decoy, which was off screen to the left, when he froze.
Following his example, I didn't move a muscle; he very slowly sat down......
....and sat almost motionless as we watched each other for a full 10 minutes. My only movement was pressing the button on my camera.
Apparently, during the time he was distracted watching me, he completely forgot what had brought him here in the first place. He finally turned slowly to survey his surroundings before getting up and walking directly under the call, which had continuously played the distressed nuthatch softly, not ten feet in front of him. His path took him directly under the call hanging 4' over his head.
Quote:At times bobcats may even include deer in their menu.
While less common where I hunt, bobcats do target deer occasionally, and not only fawns. I spotted this cat chasing a 10 point buck one morning near one of my favorite cat honey holes.
Couldn't get close enough for a shot that day, but the following morning, I set up in some excellent cat habitat (illustrated in background of this shot) within 200 yards of where I saw him the day before. Obviously he had not caught the deer, as he was still hungry and the woodpecker distress pulled him within three feet of the edge of the thick brush pictured in the background. Managed to thread the needle with a 55 gr. NBT.......
....and he now resides in my foyer

A perfect example of that is this cat I spotted, looking directly into the sun in my direction. Have no idea how long he had been there.
At risk of boring you will offer one last illustration which backs up Gary's narrative.

This unlikely "double" came to my call which I had set up targeting cats near my favorite cat hole (Remember what GC said? Heavy cover near water).
It was right at last light one evening when the cat came out of the thick brush at the gallop, headed toward my decoy. I dropped it in the first rut of the two track which split the thicket and was still sitting w/rifle on sticks, occupied admiring my handiwork, when the coyote burst out of the same trail from whence the cat came. He was also running full bore & looking at the decoy across the road when he actually stumbled and fell over the cat! He got up, looked back at the dead cat, and I swear I heard him say, "What Happened". (Where did you think Hillary got the title for her book?
) Anyway, I took advantage of the moment and dropped him between the ruts of the two track where he fell.
Cats are so much fun! Thanks, Gary, for reviving so many fond memories while offering excellent advice to the next generation of cat hunters.

Yeah i have to stay on the Ky side. I buy a TN hunting license every year since my brother lives in Nashville i go down a lot and hunt there but but hunting partner doesnt so we are stuck to our side. Most of it is on Ky so no big deal to me.

This is more info than I have ever heard on calling cats. On my first successful stand about 8 years ago, I called in a cat while I was hunting coyotes...no furbearers tag so I couldn't shoot it...but I did call it to within 10 yards. Then I could never figure out how to repeat when I had the tag.
I am going to this hills this weekend...I can't wait to try for a cat!

I have only called in one also. Its was a fews ago when they finally opened our night hunting season. I was calling an open field on a WMA here and saw a set of eyes low in the grass. I thought it was a rabbit or something so i stopped paying attention to it. As i kept calling and scanning the eyes kept getting closer then i was finally able to see it was a bobcat when it was about 45 yards away. He finally just sat down and was looking at me. Our furbearer season had already closed and we can barely hunt coyotes at night so it wasnt an option. Other then that ive seen tracks down by our creek bottoms and on an old logging road.

I have had several bobcats respond to feline distress, house cat howling.

Good luck. Had a friend tell me he saw one in the woods down near "The Home Place" last week. He was shocked and just sat there and watched it. Said he could have shot it several times during its time in front of him.
They are there.....

Did they open the nighthunting for bobcats? I hadn't checked but my brochure still says that night hunting wasn't permitted. If it's allowed this is a huge game changer.
Lots of good info here. Thanks everyone for the help. My trip seems to be canceled but I am going by myself for most of the day next time I head down to TN to my brothers. Also one of my brothers in law just showed me a trail cam pic of 2 different cats on his farm so im gonna go after those too.
