Hey I'm wondering where I can get the current regs for trapping I've only been able to find the old outdated one on Wdfw website I just wondering if any of you guys can help me out with this
-
WDFW site should have it if you search - it is probably in the hunting section of the site.

Actually you won't find current season regulations for trapping. We are at the end of the three year package so a new package was approved in March. They haven't put up the new three year package of regulations yet. If history is our guide it won't be out until the last minute. We have asked for a change in one area so they may be holding off to see if it is approved. Either way I wouldn't expect anything printed or online until October.
Not to worry though if you want to look at the old regs, the new ones are virtually identical. Seasons will stay the same and all the rules should be unchanged except for that one item may change.
If you will forgive me I don't wish to talk about that possible change on the open forum.

If you are thinking about trapping and yoiu have never trapped in WA you'll want to look into taking the trapper education class. Tough to get one in at the last minute.
