Drawing results for 2019 bobcat, fisher and otter permits
Reminder: Completion of an approved Trapper Education course is required for all new Wisconsin Trappers (with some exemptions). Since they are taught by trappers, Trapper Education classes are primarily offered in the trapping offseason of March-October. If you think you may draw a tag this year, you will have more class options if you start searching for a class in the spring/summer.

NOTE: Beginning in 2020, trappers will no longer need to apply for and draw a river otter permit to pursue this species. Otter are now a bag limit/quota species and harvest authorizations will be added automatically when a trapping license is purchased.
