Sweden: Trout fishing in Dalarna
When it comes to my home water, Österdalälven, it’s mostly known for its large population of grayling, which, as we all know, is a great fish to chase with the fly rod. Also, they are quite willing to rise to a well-presented dry fly, which most fly fishers appreciate. The excellent grayling fishing has pushed the trout a bit in the background. The trout population has been under pressure by a big dam and timber rafting. However, they have survived, and the population has grown strong and offers high-quality fishing.

So Stobo at Stobo Castle: It’s a family affair
In January 2019, after 40 years as managing director at Stobo Castle, Stephen Winyard stepped aside, becoming chairman and handing the reigns to his wife, Mandy, and their three children Taylor, Elliott and Mitchell. Dating back more than 1,000 years, Stobo Castle was purchased by the Winyards in 1975, opening as one of the UK’s first health farms in 1978. Gaynor ‘Granny’ Winyard, a trained beauty therapist, had one aim: for every guest to leave “utterly relaxed, looking trim, feeling vibrantly alive and superbly fit, and radiating good health”.

Faith in the Faroes
It is said that the Faroe Islands were first inhabited after year AD 600 by Irish monks who came to pray and live close to God in peace. Other sources suggest that the islands were inhabited long before that, and that the Christian Celtic faith was prominent on the islands for a long time, including after the landnam period around AD 800 when Norwegian emigrants and Vikings – probably along with Scots and Irishmen – settled here.
