Had a superb day on Rutland ,real good top of the water drifting on the North arm ,had I converted all the follows to fish would have sunk the boat . Best patterns olive ish dabblers spiders and half hogs ,the half hog working superbly on the point ,first fish of the day came to claret snatcher . Great fun ,thanks to CCC ghilling and the superb driving from Minkie man ,neither posts here !
Great to see some action here again thought it had died !

I've driven past Rutland many times, read lots about the place, but never fished it.
Nice to see you had a good day.

Did Grafham yesterday afternoon ,great start first drift of and o to the top dropper same olive dabbler as last week ,then 4 hours of nothing . last knockings lots of nips and boils and one bust of (on new 6lb maxima),so a blank ,great company though and good to be out of London. sad thing was some very bad manners ,people motoring at full speed across the drift and even anchoring in front of the drift !

It's probably going to have to wait until next season now, but I have to give the boats a go.

That's always been a pet hate of mine..... as if there's a lack of room I've found myself boxed in with boats on a club match before & all you can do is tickle the motor to get out, not go full pelt & scare the bejesus out of every fish in the area. Some folk eh
