When will the new regulation books come out?

Answer: 
The Game Regulations are made available online shortly after they are approved by the Fish and Game Commission.  Big Game Seasons are set by the Commission every March (View the Commision Schedule).  For 2012, the meeting is scheduled for March 21-23rd. Printed Regulations will be available a couple weeks later after they are printed and distributed to license vendors and other locations statewide. The most current Game Regulations are always available online as PDFs and in the Idaho Huntplanner (note that the Huntplanner is not the official rules).
