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 10 all new questions about famous fly tiers, geography, local fish species, and lots more.
Folks did pretty well on the last quiz, which produced four perfect scores. Break off some kudos for Mark P, Joe Tryon, James Buttitta, and Stephen F. Five people missed by just a single question, and there were many scores over 80%.
The winner of this week’s random drawing will receive a a copy of Bruce Staples’s new Fly Fishing the Greater Yellowstone Backcountry. Staples focuses on backcountry fishing opportunities in Yellowstone Park and surrounding areas in Wyoming, Montana, and Idaho. In addition to color photographs of the destinations, the author includes essential information for each stream or lake, including maps and written directions, flies, gear, and timing.
The winners of our last quiz (as determined by random.org), and recipient of a copy of Ben Duschesney’s Kayak Fly Fishing: Everything You Need to Know to Start Catching Fish, are Al Cravinho and Gary.
So post your score below (or below the post on our Facebook page!) for a chance to win a great book.
Good luck!
