Our twice-monthly(?) trivia challenge is back, with Assistant Editor Evan Jones serving as Quiz Master from now on. Every so often, Evan will test your knowledge of all things fly fishing. Remember that this is trivia, not a litmus test for what every angler should know. I say that because this week’s quiz is all about rivers and geography. It’s a battle of East vs West, with some Midwest and South thrown in for good measure.
The last quiz was another fairly easy one, and five of you achieved perfect scores. Golf claps for Chris, Jake, tk118, Brad W, and Nick Lake. Jake wrote, “Finally, 100%! It’s taken years and years. I’ve been close a few times.” The most common score dropped one notch to a still-darned-good 70%.
The winner of this week’s random drawing will receive a Bent Rod Badge Hat, which, which features a brim made with 100% recycled fishing nets, keeping our oceans cleaner. This is a new hat in our ever-changing collection of cool lids. All you have to do to enter is post your score below!
The winner of that late-November quiz (as determined by the random.org) is RPD, whose score was quite popular. No matter; he still gets the hat.
Don’t forget to post your score in the comments to be eligible to win a hat!
