Great pics.
Now, you want to help a Southern boy out and tell him what they are? I know y’all talk about Fisher and Martins, are those the big ones? And read about weasels and mink, pretty sure those are the little ones. Then again I really have no clue. There’s no guessing on what you get down here. K9 or feline, and coon or possum.

Larger blacker ones are fisher.The smaller redder ones are marten.

Doesn't look like you had a problem getting them in just the triggers, no step pans on the conibears? You think painted green helped, not the dyed black?

Where is the photo of all the lynx hanging in the conibears. That is why they outlawed them, you caught to many in the tree sets with conibears......jk

Those fisher are such cool looking animals. We don't have many in my area of MN, although I had one in my woods several years ago. I watched as it went round and round a large oak tree after a grey squirrel. It pretty much cleaned the squirrels out of my woods. Never saw it again after that. The fox and grey squirrels are back in pretty good numbers again. Maybe another one will show. They're so rare around here, I'd never trap one. Love watching them too much.


I don't care how nice the hand soap smells, you should never walk out of the restroom sniffing your fingers.

Just got to bend the triggers apart then out away from the trap for the fisher can get their heads in.I really liked then paint compared to dye.Id dip in brown latex then hit with green spray paint.They sure blended in better.
