Can you trap ROWs with permission from property owners?

Seldom did you not read the mink "catcher's" manifesto? Any bridge they can get under without being seen will be fair game come November is my guess.

Be just like decade or so ago when had ok prices. When you crawled down into the culvert/ditch that you had permission on, found it had already been set. Even if it was opening morning.

There will be no shortage of "catchers" out there. Mink catchers just like canine catchers----a dime a dozen. Upside is that's about all they will catch too. Hardly any canine trappers left and way less mink trappers. And last go around there were at least two buyers I can think of left in business in my parts (and probably 1-2 more up north of you). One is long deceased and the other lost enough money back then that you wont see him or the family ever buying again.
