TROUT FISHERMAN'S IAIN BARR WINS THE TITLE HE'S ALWAYS WANTED, WORLD CHAMPION.
IAIN Barr achieved a unique England double by winning individual and team gold at this year's World Championships in Scotland.
Eleven years as a Trout Fisherman writer, Iain had previously won almost every domestic title available. But nothing can compare with having his name etched alongside fellow Englishmen Tony Pawson, Brian Leadbetter (twice world champion) and Jeremy Hermann.

SOONER or later winter brings high water levels, or a severe cold spell, both of which see us delving into boxes of weighted bugs and nymphs to scour the streambed. Nomadic by nature, grayling are considerably free-ranging especially in a given pool when modest flow rates will see them readily move to preferred feeding lies. However, a big spate, or Arctic temperatures often restrict their movements to more comfortable stretches of a stream. In real extremes this might mean only one or two key places. For example, in a raging flood the inside bend of a river offers protection from battering flows (Diagram 1) Equally, a deep depression/hole provides sanctuary in either spate or freezing conditions (Diagram 2) With this and the fact that insect hatches generally ebb during winter months, grayling initially seek food close to the streambed.
