Fished grafham on Tuesday evening, fish were stuffed full of black buzzers. Was difficult from the bank until later in the evening (~8pm) as they seemed to be cruising further out until then. They were not deep, perhaps 3-5ft down. Dunno about the boats but recent reports have sounded good with a high rod average so I would imagine they are doing well on the whole

Fished Grafham at the weekend (Fri-Mon) and the place was stuffed with fish.

Savages on black buzzers or the West Shore (just down from the Nature Reserve) pulling boobies and blobs on a Di3 - Di5.

The bank was very difficult with most fish 80-100yards out.

My mate is out on Rutland today so I'll have some info by the end of the day.

Bank fishing has been a struggle all year for me. Was chatting to a chap the other night who was theorising that it is because the water levels got so low last year the fish are following the line of last years low water, rather than the present shore. No idea if thats the case or not but I've certainly found it challenging.

Rutland also fished well today from the boat. My mate had 16 on buzzers. I've only had a text message off him so can't give you exact areas but he was out with Robbie Winram so if you see him in the shop I'm sure he'll point you in the right direction.
