I go about it like it's a job and trap hard and minimize my expenses because of work. I like to put up big numbers in a short period of time when conditions are favorable and in my area it's about three weeks of prime fall water trapping. Then the snow makes it tough until the ice gets thick. No time to play games and get the run around when deer season is on and the officers are hopefully busy. If a shoreline is private land I would get the permission regardless of if you trap it or not and stay within the high water mark and trap the whole water body if they don't do a 5 dollar search for you.
