That is certainly an accurate description! (While adding, a mean and well-fed weasel.) Fishers are sometimes seen by boat on sun-lit shorelines, so they're not exclusively noctural critters.

After midnight several years ago, a neighbor's shred-eared, monster Maine Coon cat cornered what was likely a fisher-cat on their dock. Both were screaming—but only one was certainly a cat!

Deploying a new and powerful "Streamlite" halogen flashlight shined-back one pair of very active blue cat eyes and one pair of hulking amber eyes.

It's always best not to intervene with Nature, I say.
