Welcome to another edition of our mostly 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 an all-new quiz to tickle the ol’ gray matter.
I thought that the last quiz wasn’t as easy as it might have seemed at first blush, but there were an incredible fifty-seven perfect scores! Holy cow, that’s a new record. Strangely enough, just seven people scored 95%. For the first time ever, the most common score was perfection.
We have another special prize this week: To celebrate the launch of the new collaboration between Tacky and Orvis, we are giving away a Tacky Collab Deluxe Fly Box. This is a killer box for organizing small dries and all your nymphs.
The winner of our last quiz (as determined by random.org), and recipient of a Tacky Collab Dropper Box, was one of our 100-percenters, Craig Flood.
So post your score below for a chance to win this amazing fly box.
Good luck!
