I bet they mess with that too Just north of you here in Maine. We have a two month season with a limit of ten. I've had sets out since the first of November with a goodly amount of fisher sign and have managed to collect not one. Fifty days of empty traps. Ten more to go.

Congrats! Good job! What wma u in? Not seeing many bobcats or fisher being trapped in pa this yr. 2-3" rain per week and warm weather isn't helping either.

I’ve found that after a nasty weather front moved through....I’d catch some fisher. If the weather stayed kinda constant.....it was not good.
