Is it legal? Doubt id ever do it because all the dangerous traffic. We just had a discussion about it on the way home from work today while seeing all the nice coon trails going under interstate 80.

I did not bitch about it. Just wondered what the H--- a truck from that county was doing in Story county. Good thing we met and became friends, I thought that worked out well and shows trappers are good people. Just had another ISU student stop and offered him a warm place to skin and dispose of carcases in our hole this season. He is from Oskalosa. Seemed like a good guy.

I used to trap a portion of I-80 before work until stopped by highway patrol one day. I was informed that only emergency stopping was allowed and if seen again would be ticketed. Explained I was on my way to work(wearing shirt and tie under my coveralls) and out of time, but would pick them up the next day. Officer said he'd give me a pass for one more day but could not speak for other LEOs...............Still drool over the trails still there!

You guys just need to put your pickup hood up and check traps faster.  LOL, LLL |

Come up out of the ditch buckling your belt while holding a roll of toilet paper. Honest Sir, It was an emergency!  |

I heard a guy A little farther north of me puts a yellow flashing light on top of truck like he is a phone man or a construction worker. Seem to work for him as far as I know. I know he has posted on here a couple of time maybe he will chime in.  |

For you ol' timers who remember "High Speed Harry", he would park on the interstate ramp and walk the ditch for whatever distance and return on the other side. Don't know if he was legal but do not know of any issues, but that was 30 years ago.

Ive always wanted to trap along the interstate but never have. Figured us trappers get enough BS from the public as it is. With out all the goodie goodies driving by while you drag you catch up outta the ditch!
