Welcome to the latest 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 10 new questions to make you scratch your head.
The last quiz could be the start of a serious winning streak; last week, there were 12 perfect scores, and this week, there are 13! Here are the perfect scorers: Stephen Fitch (again), Bob I., Chadmon Householder,Peter D, Bob T., Ben VanDinther, Joseph Batholomew, Daniel B, JST, Anton, Shoo-Fly, Mark Coleman, and David Fitch (no relation?). Strangely, there were just five 90% scores. The most common scores were also odd, as there were equal numbers of 80% and 50%.
The winner of this week’s random drawing will receive an a copy of Tom Rosenbauer’s brand new, completely revised Orvis Fly-Fishing Guide. I edited this book, so I can assure you that it’s fabulous.
The winner of our last quiz (as determined by random.org), and recipient of this wonderful tome was John Zimmer, whose score suggests he could benefit from Tom’s wisdom.
So post your score below for a chance to win a video that will help you become a better nymph fisherman.
Good luck!
