The official regulations have the final word

These dates come from rows a person checked against the Idaho Department of Fish and Game's regulations, but bag limits, licences, draws, legal hours and closures are set there and can change during the season. Read them before you hunt.

HuntGrid isn't affiliated with the Idaho Department of Fish and Game. A season shows here only once a person has checked it; others may exist.
