You got 33 out of 37 correct, or 89.19 %

I missed #1, 12, 14 and 15. 

BTW, to link it, modify your post.  Highlight the link with your mouse or the keyboard, and click the icon.  Then re-submit the post.  It should look like http://www.vic.com/~bassmstr/quiz/bmtvquiz.html when you're done.

Even though there is no such thing as a "yellow catfish"&a bunch of the names were spelled wrong

"You got 37 out of 37 correct, or 100.00 %"

four years of doing this crap and it finally pays off.  LOL ;D

You got 35 out of 37 correct, or 94.59 %

I sorta got thrown off by a name and well am quite ashamed that I got the two wrong that I did but I didnt do too bad, seems that I actually paid attention in some of my college classes  ;D

31 out of 37 for me . Frigging one bluegill, sunfish etc looks the same as another to me and then some kinds of fish that aren't even in my area waters . :-\ . I hope Minnow the Gobie killer doesn't get bored too often on a Friday night . LOL ;D

I'm not sure what mine was in percentage Germ but its what I got and like you those sunnys are all the same to me and bait stealers . LOL . You can easily identify a sauger from a walleye because Saugers don't have the white spot at bottom of tail which the Walleyes do . ;) Yes colors can vary alot from one body of water to another .
