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. Here’s a set of 10 all-new questions to tickle the gray matter, covering such subjects as angling literature, saltwater flies, and world records.
The scores on last week’s A River Runs Through It-based Trivia Challenge were a mixed bag, with three perfect scores. Kudos to Mark, Justin Marion, and Deb. However, the most common score was 40%. Read that book, people.
The randomly chosen winner of this week’s quiz will receive a copy of Kirk Deeter’s book The Orvis Guide to Fly Fishing for Carp. The winner of our last quiz (as determined by random.org) was Mr. Bill, who earned 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 some great stickers for your car, boat, guitar, or whatever you want.
Good luck!
