Welcome to another edition of our 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.
The last quiz was apparently quite difficult, as there was just ONE legitimate 100% score. Congrats to Ben Johnson.
This week’s all-new quiz features 10 questions about everything from fly-reel materials to famed steelhead rivers.
The randomly chosen winner of this week’s quiz will receive a signed copy of Tom’s book The Orvis Guide to Prospecting for Trout. This is the book you need for those times when there is no specific hatch on. Last week’s book winner (as determined by random.org) was Cindi Vetter, whose bravery for posting a “humbling” score was rewarded with the prize.
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 Tom’s book with his inspirational words on the title page.
Good luck!
