I hate to tell you but if colorado does not allow marten TRAPPING then they cannot go to another state and trap marten.

wrong lynxie, it`s only a yes or no deal, not trading exact regs. if you can go trap ca. same laws as yancy then he can go trap idaho same laws as you. fwiw, daughter #2 is moving to challis, idaho this june, serious. what`s the area like for cats? anyone familiar with that country?

Bob, things have changed SUBSTANTIALLY last 2 years.. IF from Ore/Ut with 6or7 cat limits..THAT is NOW the most they can trap here. Same goes for harvest methods... got THAT from the head biologist out of the main office. As for Challis... come on up I'll show you around!!! I know Challis VERY well... sister lives there and I've spent MANY summers there(cabin's there). There ARE a "fair" quantity of cats around there..only problem being they area VERY RED cats.... never have trap'd them there, but know several who have and have done decently. Brent

my red cats bring the same as my blue cats. since indiana has no cats, thus no cat season, how does that figure in your non resident laws? my goodnwess if we had a season you could trap them here, just none here. like me coming to idaho to trap marten, well there are no marten here either.

Hey lynx,
I live on the west side of oregon, and we have no limit on bobcats on the west side (unlike the 7 limit on the east side). I assume that it's no limit for me in Idaho too, If I buy a NR license?
Plus, every trapper has the option of buying either east or west oregon bobcat tags, only one or the other. So in theroy, every trapper in the state has the opportunity for no limit on cats, if they buy the west side tag only.
Just some interesting food for thought.

Think anybody has ever tagged an Eastern cat with a Western tag?

The difference between the two types of cats would be pretty obvious.

It's not. I've been to quite few of their sales. There is a grey area in there.
Sure the little coastal ones look different than the big heavy lava cats on the Idaho border but you take some of those out of the cascades and they look pretty good.
I've sold plenty of NV cats that are worse.

I belive that if your a US citizen you should be aloud to trap in every state that has a season . Greedy poeple create more stupid laws like Mn. with NR's . Manie you have to be a res. to trap beaver. ect,ect. simply greed . Why in heck would anyone want to vote for anything that would limit anything to do with trapping except maybe seasons ? Seems to me like there playing into the anti's hands more and more .

Bill- I agree 100%. But you and I both know why that is not occurring.
here is how NR was voted on in MN-
btw- even though a mail in ballot was requested a couple of times, the answer was always no.
Mn has 5500-6500 trapping lic sold.
2500 or so are MTA members- say 40%
the MTA holds a mid winter meeting, the first Sat in Jan.
150- to a maximum of 200 people including visitors, etc are there.
how many of that total voted, who knows.
Why does no one know- because the "vote" was a quick arm count vote, no numbers tallied.
so maybe 100 or so MTA members, most from the north, because after all- the meeting is held in Jan in the north- voted to continue to keep NR trappers out of MN.
So maybe...MAYBE 2% of MN trappers- "voted" against NR trappers.
Nor blaming MTA, but lets make this vote what it really was-
Why doesn't the DNR send out ballots to ALL lic trappers? after all, they sure can send them all a questionaire after the seaosn.
