Northern Maine Mustelid Trapline: Weasel Revenge!

Спорт

Join me on my fall 2023 marten/fisher/weasel trapline in northern Maine. It's been an off year and I'm trapping closer to home due to a number of factors. This has been a great opportunity to learn a new piece of country on a relatively small time and financial commitment, and still pick up some fur!

    That’s crazy about that weasel, I guess he should’ve picked a better spot to stand that morning. I wonder if carrying a canteen with water on your hip would help free up that weasel stuck to that box out on the line, as opposed to bringing the box back or destroying the fur. Thanks for bringing us along on the line. I look forward to it every year. It was fun tagging along. Good luck and stay safe out there 👍👍

    Sadly I'm sure it'll go away soon.... The same restrictions you have for your trapping (use of cubbies/boxes) is just north of me in the Lynx zone. Sure it won't be long that one gets caught and then we'll lose all snaring and exposed conibear sets

    Last year i asked this same question - how about setting 2 traps at a stop. If you find a worthy location, please give it a try. Best wishes! 40:49

    The weasel was hired by the Mustelid Family Syndicate to prevent you from trapping. He was there to deliver a message…..

    How many Martin are you able to catch in Maine? By any chance do you know the annual harvest for fisher and Martin in Maine. Reason I’m asking is I’m in MN. We can only get 2. Of any combination of fisher and Martin

    25 marten, 25 fisher in maine. The harvest fluctuates widely from year to year. Going off memory, I think it's usually in the high hundreds to low thousands for each species
