Welcome to another edition of our fly-fishing trivia challenge, where 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, I’ve somehow come up with another set of all-new questions to make you scratch your head and avoid working for a few minutes.
The scores on last week’s Trivia Challenge were a massive improvement over the previous few weeks. We had a 900% increase in perfect scores, with nine of you hitting the 100% mark: Conratulations are in order for Thomas, James Delhamer, Brian Greer, Winston, Timmothy Morgan, Blaine Barringer, Kenneth, Jason Hitt, and ChuckB! The most common score was 70%.
These were the only two questions from last week’s quiz that a majority didn’t get right.
The randomly chosen winner of this week’s quiz will receive a very cool packet of Orvis stickers. The winner of our last quiz (as determined by random.org) was Andrew Cook, who scored a very respectable 80%.
So, take this week’s quiz, and no matter how well or poorly you do, post your score in the comments below to be eligible to win a cool book.
Good luck!
