While I don't care if y'all jabber on on this thread, I do agree with 160 that there should be a new thread if it's true that MTA is pursuing non-resident trapping. How did that come about? Did they finally fire their lawyer? lol. Who said the MTA is looking to pursue it? 2poor did. How is the issue dead ? MN Association has approved pursuing NR trapping !

Serious question here. If Minnesota resident buys a lifetime small game or sportsman's license it includes a trapping license. The lifetime license is good for life, irregardless of where you live. So, how would that affect a trapping license? MN will honor your Lifetime license including the trapping portion. Not all States allow you to have residency rights in there State without giving up your residency rights in another State. I bought a lifetime small game and firearm deer license before moving to Wisconsin. When I contacted the DNR I was told I'm still not allowed to trap. I can still get a trapping license printed though

Again, the MTA members supported NR trapping by a paper ballot vote. It’s been so long I can’t even recall year it passed by a simple majority.
No real action has been taken. My personal opinion is someone would prefer to slow walk it until death ! No move with a Republican majority and now scared to introduce legislation with a Democrat majority.
Interesting Angela doesn’t like this NR Thread yet moves it to the top !

I know of someone with a lifetime MN Sportsmans licence who lives in ND. He runs a line along the MN/ND border and has never had any issues.

Well, gee, two marten /fishers,..four otters,...have at it,..not my issue. Do some research on trapping guide services around the country, they don't all focus on CITES animals. A MN trapper, willing to put in the effort, could make an extra 15,000.00 a year as a guide for NRs. Peanuts to some, an amount that makes the difference to others.

I’m a bit confused here. You’re proposing to require a guide to trap in MN like when hunting in some States or in Canada?

So can anyone tell me why the Peoples Republic of Minnesota will not allow a non resident to trap here unless they own property? I would like to do some trapping in a few other states but since MN will not allow non residents to trap here, then many other states will not allow someone from MN to trap in their state. I can buy a non resident small game license to hunt coyotes in Nebraska but only for two days. Coyotes are also considered an invasive species with no season but yet I still not allowed to trap them. I can shoot them but not trap them. I'm sure other states have something like this but can anyone tell me why MN does this? Is it greed or what? That why I avoid Minnesota, land of the socialist liberals

I’m a bit confused here. You’re proposing to require a guide to trap in MN like when hunting in some States or in Canada? You are quite confused ! He mentioned if NR trapping is allowed a guy could supplement his income by assisting a less experienced NR wilderness trapper obtain his goals. Might be trapping Cats , Fisher , under ice Beaver etc. I know several guys currently guiding NR hunters behind hounds chasing Cats. Guiding Bear hunters is also popular supplemental income for some experienced trappers. It’s unique in MN that NR hunters can harvest Bobcat (5), but not allowed to trap a single cat.

That why I avoid Minnesota, land of the socialist liberals Uniquely , we own land in NW Iowa , pay taxes on said land, but can’t trap on it despite MN allowing NR landowners to trap on land they own !

Interesting Angela doesn’t like this NR Thread yet moves it to the top ! Whoa there, I have no problem with this thread. I did find it funny it got dragged back up on Christmas eve is all. I absolutely think that MN should allow NR trapping, it's ridiculous that they don't. I thought from your previous post that there was some new development with the MTA on the NR issue and if that was the case felt a new thread was warranted, but apparently that's not the case.

Why would there need to be a new development ! Personally I am still hoping the MTA take the last membership vote seriously !

Taking the last membership vote seriously and trying to get NR trapping allowed would BE a new development. If MTA polled the membership and the majority of them want NR trapping then yes, MTA should absolutely support it.
