Welcome to a classic edition of our weekly trivia challenge, in which we test your knowledge of all things fly fishing and where you might learn a thing or two about this sport we love. This week’s quiz features ten questions about everything from fly fishing history to native species to fly-tying materials.
On the last quiz, there were four perfect scores, achieved by Nathan Hold, Dan Koshman, Dave F., and Corey G. Parsons. These are some serious brainiacs, apparently. Three folks missed perfection by a single question. The most common score was, again, a 60%.
The randomly chosen winner of this week’s quiz will receive his or her choice of an Orvis Fly Selection, featuring patterns chosen by Orvis-endorsed professional guides. The winner of our last quiz (as determined by random.org) was David, who scored so low that he “need[s] all the help he can get.
So post your score below for a chance at some great stickers.
Good luck!
