Awesome! Marten trapping is a lot of work. Looking forward to following along this year.
how you guys doing this year ? You put up great numbers last year !
Well I’m done with the marten for the year. I trapped them for a few weeks and ended with 8. My buddy is still trapping them and is at 19. I think he’s going to pull traps this weekend. You’re having a great season!

Not great, but not terrible.

Forgive my ignorance about martins. My only knowledge has come from watching those Alaskan trapping shows. Most of the martins they show are black or almost black with a little white. All of those shown in this thread are reddish? Is that a regional difference in color?

Marten in the norther territories are bigger and darker for sure kinda of a dark chocolate. Here we have pacific marten which are typically a little smaller but I’ve caught them light and dark and some have white chests but most have the peach throat patches
