Lockman, Seems to me if I check a trap on my property and then walked down the road to check one I'd set on a neighbors land I'd be "engaged in checking my traps" , just like I'd be engaged in hunting if I was hunting on my property and then walked across the road to a neighbors property. They don't expect you to unload and encase your firearm when doing that (well there may be some Illinois cop that does or the ISP) so why should trapping be different. I'm sure it would be good to have your trapping license/permit on you.
