I heard a rumor that you can't use traps (minnow traps) in aurora res. need to know if you can on the dam.

No rumor you cannot use them.

You cannot use traps anywhere in Arapahoe County. For minnows or crawdads. At Aurora, you cannot even use a net to freely grab crawdads unless they are already on your hook or bait (ie., chicken leg on a line) How do I know, rangers told me so.

I was fishing off the dam, standing in the water, I look down, and a crawdad was just inches from my foot, chilling, I reached into the water with my my little mini net from my live bait bucket and grabbed him, hooked him up, casted him out, 4 minutes later, get a bite, lost the set, reel in, all that's left is the tail :(

ILIKEFISHING you may or may have not known, but
you broke the law then buy using that net.

Rope and chicken will get you a bucket full in an hr or 2.
