Thought I had another evil Civet harassing one of my cat sets,but caught this guy in my civet set
I was at an elevation of about 1000 ft thought Marten stayed a little higher.
Beautiful hide.

You guys see many marten in WA?
If you shoot the first one you will never get that true trophy.

Awesome catch! I saw one last year on the high buck hunt. That's the only one though.

I generally only run into them in the high country.   I have a whole barrel full of 110s I wish I could use on them.
