It’s kinda tough to find any regulations. I’ll bet you have to take the course to get a regulation book. But you’d think it’d be online somewhere too….

It appears that Wyoming has no state-mandated size specifications for traps on land or water. Here's a link to the relevant statutes: https://law.justia.com/codes/wyoming/title-23/chapter-2/article-3/section-23-2-303/

No size limits but Wyoming does regulate what NR trappers can take.

Here is the NR part of the licensing from the brochure:

TRAPPING LICENSE
Any person upon application and the payment of the proper fee, except
as otherwise provided, may receive a license to trap any furbearing animal. The Department shall issue a trapping license to a nonresident only
if their state issues licenses to Wyoming residents to trap the same species for which residents of that state may be licensed to trap in that state.
Any nonresident applying for a Wyoming trapping license shall furnish:
1. A notarized affidavit stating the applicant’s legal address including
their state of residence; and,
2. A copy of the most current statutes or rules and regulations of the
applicant’s state of residence, which shows that the state issues
nonresident trapping licenses that authorize Wyoming residents
to trap the same species for which residents of that state may be
licensed to trap in that state.
Resident trapping licenses are available from the Cheyenne Headquarters, Department Regional Offices and license selling agents.
Nonresident trapping licenses are available only from the Cheyenne
Headquarters.
