Hi

A dozen of us heading down to Rutland tomorrow for the week. Any reports on where it's fishing well, how well and what is really working there just now?

Can't wait...............only one more sleep

There do seem to be a lot of fish about, certainly a shed load have gone in. The average size from yesterday was a fairly little, but considering there were a lot of novice anglers out in quite a lot of wind they did remarkably well. The rudder from the boils into fantasy was the method of the day, but there are also fish close to the shore (and some bigger ones too, the biggest fish of the day came from within 20 yards of the bank up towards the monument).

General consensus seems to be that favoured spots up the South Arm are not really producing, with rather coloured water evident. But still worth a try if you're out for a week. Otherwise sailing club to yellowstone, east creek to the lodge, main basin into the dam/fantasy/sykes lane, peninsular from carrot creek to the transformer, and there are still fish up at Burley Reaches... Minkies and other fry patterns are coming into their own, but they are feeding on snails and corixa as well. It should be a cracking week, the weather looks good, if a little windy at times.

Cheers Charlie, here's hoping they stay well up. Looks like the wind is going to blow a wee bit next week though.
