Welcome to Idaho Fish and Game’s Hook and Bulletin podcast—your weekly news roundup of hunting, fishing, trapping, and conservation stories from around the Gem State.

This week on the Hook and Bulletin, we’ll be talking about a couple of Commission actions set during last week’s special conference call, why there’s no “one size fits all” playbook for successful kokanee fisheries, an opportunity to try your hand at Dutch oven cooking, and how collared mule deer fawns and elk calves have been faring so far during winter. Hosted by Fish and Game’s Public Information Specialist Connor Jay Liess.
