You can legally nuisance trap fisher? Try some apples. In PA the control of nuisance fisher must be approved by the Game Commission and conducted by a licensed NWCO.

Blind set is my chosen method with a cage and off site dispatch, but I want to touch on what your game warden said cage trap it and hual.it away...? Is he suggesting you relocate it because Fisher are a RVS ( RABIES VECTOR SPECIES) which means absolutely no relocation due to the possibility of spreading rabies and as far as I understand this isn't just a Connecticut thing. I just think its irresponsible of a warden to make such a comment if that's what he was suggesting.
