Narrative:

Requested visual approaching VOR in good VMC at 4000 ft. Cleared visual and immediately asked for a 360 degree turn to lose altitude on tower frequency. Cleared as requested and cleared visual to land. Transient aircraft popped up on TCASII 6 mi and 2000 ft above as we initiated our 360 degree delay turn. No communications were heard from this aircraft at any time during the approach nor were we advised of any traffic by either approach or tower. As we turned final the other was 3 mi in trail and 1300 ft above us. That was the closest the 2 aircraft came to each other throughout our approach and landing. Ground then advised us to call baq approach, which we did. To our surprise baq approach told us the other aircraft had filed a near miss.
