The Idaho Department of Fish and Game is considering allowing anglers to harvest a limited number of bull trout in Lake Pend O’Reille, the northern Idaho lake where bull trout, as well as the popular kokanee salmon, have been threatened by the introduction of nonnative lake trout.  Bull trout are a threatened species under the Endangered Species Act, but may be harvested under special circumstances with permission from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.  It sounds like Fish and Game biologists are trying to balance numbers of bull trout and kokanee in the presence of lake trout, which can often be very tough.  The Department is seeking public comment on the proposed decision.
