A fisher has 5 toes a bobcat has 4 easy to tell difference if ya count them. I also use boxes and 220’s but most my luck comes from footholds. I make a basket similar to a box then cover with pine brows, beaver and muskrats for bait. Sometimes I’ll hang a red squirrel or chipmunk in front also. The problem with boxes is if you’re in a high snowshoe hare area they prefer them over sticking there head in a box I’m in a very high rabbit population makes it difficult but if you have rabbits you HAVE CATS, no doubt. Im in Mn as well but way North by Canada border love the channel started watching ya last year congrats on your marten I got a marten and a fisher this year. So far one bobble

I would look into Duke 550 offsets they’re a great trap for bobcats and coyotes and cheaper than MB 550’s however I have both but to me they both are excellent traps if you buy some.Good luck hope you get a cat I know you’re trying your tail off you deserve it brother 🤛

I use boxes. Never slowed me down. I usually don’t set on the ground though. We would loose almost all our catches to squirrel/ moose damage as well as coyote and foxes eating everything Leaning pole Set works good as a marten and fisher double duty. My biggest learning curve was the attractant or lure that I used. A more skunky lure seemed to bring in more fishers. If I was approaching my fisher limit I would stop using the skunky lures and the catches start to favour marten again. But I’m in northern Alberta and I’m sure the animals behave differently to some extent Funny though how the same bait with a different lure can produce different
