Welcome to another 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, we’ve got a classic quiz, featuring ten questions about fly inventors, river geography, and angling history.
The last quiz was a bit tougher than I thought, as just two people achieved a perfect score. Golf claps for Roger and Joseph. Nine people missed just a single question, and the most common score held steady at 60%.

The winner of this week’s random drawing will receive a copy of Nick Curcione’s Saltwater Edge:
Tips and Tactics for Saltwater Fly Fishing, from Stackpole Books. Curcione covers his entire saltwater system (knots, rigging, tackle, approach) with detailed information on shooting heads, sinking lines, and two-handed rods for the salt, which have not been covered thoroughly in any other book.
The winner of our last quiz (as determined by random.org), and recipient of a copy of Jay Zimmerman’s The Best Bass Flies: How to Tie and Fish Them, was JP, who rolled one right down the middle.
So post your score below (or below the post on our Facebook page!) for a chance to win a great book.

60% with four brains between us. Apparently we’ve hit summer and our brains would all rather be on the river than in the shop. Typical shop rats.
70%
40% – Hm, the Intruder is fished like a wet fly . . . seems like a (giant) wet fly to me. I also can’t find anything about Idahoans calling the entire main-stem Snake River the “South Fork”, but I’m from Wyo, so I’m certainly biased. That said, 60% isn’t very good either, so maybe I should just keep my mouth shut 🙂
70%. Happy Fourth.
50% guess I got lucky on one or two of them.
90% and I should have followed my hunch
Back to terrible. You scored 40%!
