May I ask what the reasoning is behind that rule? I don't think they need any reasoning for their trapping rules in Minnesota. Its just a table load of DNR folks sitting around, shooting their thoughts, and writing down regs. Now, they probably have to have diversity philosophies written into them, such as "transgender Hmong humans get to trap for free" . Got to love how the PRMN runs things... Have fun 330 Trapper!!!

most public land here closes at 10 p.m., so im guessing thats the reason for trapping hours ending then. Public land closes?? Shouldn't you call that "King's Land" or something then?
Boco couldn't catch a cold. But if he did, it would be Top Lot.

When I did nuisance beaver work on the RR my authorization from the MNR was to trap and shoot.Each was a separate authorization. On top of that I had to have a letter each year from the chief engineer MofW from the RR authorizing carrying a gun on RR property. Employees acting as agents for the company can get these authorizations in Ontario. I was/am always armed.

It was a great job 330,but a tough job-hard work-had to remove all dams and return water to natural flow.Pay was great,lots of overtime and my own boss. As long as beavers were getting whacked and the water lowered I never heard from my boss.Worked directly with track inspectors who would report problem areas.(emergencys). Also did a lot of inland work identified thru twice a year aerial surveys i did with a contracted helecopter service,sometimes a mile or more from the railroad thru the bush often in remote areas and in bug season. Needed to carry a gun for whacking beaver as well as protection from bears in some areas.

Any other beaver colonys nearby that one 330? There might be Boco , this is in a city park pond. Over a foot path there is a beaten path ...the beaver use to go to a river . I set both sides of that chanel with 280's under and dive stick. I have to be as Incognito as I can be because of the dog walkers etc. On the river side this morning were two green willow branches fresh cut by beaver . Like they were coming IN and got to the still open water chanel and didn't want to dive with them. I set a 330 a bit further out , still a dive set. Usually I would not make all the traps totally under. But people you know. If we had Ice around the feed pile I'd make 3 or 4 different sets.
