Got a call from the local Fish and Game office the other day saying they had recovered 2 of my muskrat traps while dealing with an unrelated case. Also said the guy claimed to have "snagged" them while fishing and had them in his garage for a year. confused My trap tags say "Return to IDF&G (Idaho Fish & Game) and then my ID #. They had been attached to a rat float but that was nowhere to be found. Anyway they are my favorite rat trap, duke 1.5 with Mike Kelley's pans, so I'm glad to get them back.

Yeah that thing floating there anchored with two set traps with bait on top must be abandoned so nobody wants it...

Sounds about right to me. I absolutely bet he did “snag” them while fishing. He probably snags a lot of things.

I’ve decided I’m exempt from such nonsense.
