There are so many conflicting opinions on this and so, as stated in the regs, I ask the landowner. On any situation like this I ask myself if I can defend it in court.

None of your business Minnesotan! Haha, I just figured after that last thread about MN non resident trapping that I'd stir the pot a little, lol

Dont recall his name. I think if WI didnt require reciprocity from Minnesotans, then I could come over and rape the beaver/muskrat/ coon populations with reckless abandon. I think I'll pray for Wisconsin. lol Let us Pray...

It seems there is no real consensus by DOT on a county by county basis. In my county I contacted the county DOT head and he stated they are not allowing ROW on county and state hi ways. I have seen traps in those ROWs the last few years but I am not setting any in those ROWs. In other counties there may be differences. With coons being so low there is much less pressure. I am sure if coons were high again there would be more trapping and concerns. Some trappers have told me they have talked with county people and wardens and they were not checking on this or enforcing, but I am not going to risk losing a license for what the catches would be worth.
Bryce You between Plymouth and Kiel? I have a buddy down that way that traps almost exclusively along ROW.
