It's the second time Miller has scooped the prestigious prize as she was also victorious in 1999. She couldn't quite help England to top spot as they finished runners-up behind the host nation.

Miller landed nine fish for a total weight of 20lb 6oz to pip England team-mate Hilary Tomlinson to the top individual prize.

Miller said: "I am so chuffed to have won. I didn't catch a thing on the first day of practice and only landed one fish on the second day, but I had spent time looking out for the best areas to fish on match day.

"The match started at 9am and by 9.05 I had my first fish in the boat, a wonderful rainbow trout of 3lb plus. That was a fantastic start to an international.

"My day's catch ended at nine and I was delighted with that although you always assume someone will have done better. Fortunately no-one had."

Miller, an accountant, has been flyfishing for 28 years and is the current chairman of the England Ladies Flyfishing Association.

She has won 21 England caps.

Team result: 1 Scotland 65 fish for 147lb 1oz, 2 England 52 fish for 111lb 2oz, 3 Ireland 39 fish for 86lb 9oz, 4 Wales 31 fish for 68lb 11.5oz.
