I  am inclined to say no.
Reasons: The ears are wrong. Fishers ears are more rounded, not so pointy and those in the picture stick up too much. In the second picture if it was a fisher the ears would not be any higher then the forehead.
Also I think it is too big.

If all I had to go by was the first  picture I would really have a question mark but the second picture seals it for me as not a fisher.

Thanks-
The ears are what's throwing me off as well.  Not a possum... what could this critter be?

Bobkitty??

Don't think it's a cat... Here is a big kitty at the same location; and then a big bob just up the hill.

I saw a large fisher today at the Cowiche trail head on the hillside about 50 yards from the trail head sign.

Any chance these are fisher?  The stride was about two feet.  Timber land near Battleground 2012.

I caught and released a small female fisher before Christmas. About 5 miles east of Moclips. Sorry no pictures. I had no camera. It's getting to be not such a big deal anyway. This is the fifth one I have caught. I'm seeing more sign of them too. They are stealing my skunk baits. Looks to me like they run the logging roads so if true one can cover a lot of country.

I think one showed up on the Alone show this last season.  I think thats where I saw it...   Probably murder on someone wanting to snare rabbits to live off of. LOL
