Very cool catches. I can't wait to try my hand at fisher trapping here in WI.

I understand that you have to go with the hand you are dealt. Pennsylvania has a good season, date wise, but some very restrictive conibear regs, New York is lucky that we don't have a catch limit. When I criticize DEC how many years has it been and still no otter season in western NY? Secret deals????

We have another 6 weeks before our season starts. Now just try and keep them out of coyote sets.

Here in NH...fisher season is the month of December.

But ovah the last 22 years ...the limit has gone from 15...all the way down to just 2.

I haven't made a fisher set in 5 years.

I've caught plenty ...no fun in just 2 ..and have to send in the lower jaw


It is better to die on your feet than to live on your knees.

Nice! And it's been raining a lot too. I had out three sets but just for the weekend. Didn't get anything this year but did get two in the same sets a few years ago. Yes short season and not prime is not fun....as gas still costs money.

Were all your (catches) sets on the ground?

I’ll be setting NY fisher traps about late next week and until season closes December 10th. And I agree, season closes about the time it should open.

Heading up to the ADK on Friday for 2 weeks of trapping with the kiddos. Hope I do as well as 160andup.
