An ice protection system (100) includes an aircraft surface (102) and a gutter (104) defined in the aircraft surface (102) between raised rails (106). The gutter (104) includes a mouth (108) that narrows into a trailing portion of the gutter (104). The mouth (108) is configured to channel water runback rivulets into the trailing portion of the gutter (104). The gutter (104) can be a first gutter (104) of a plurality of side by side gutters (104), each including a respective mouth (108) narrowing into a respective trailing portion, wherein the gutters (104) are separated from one another by respective rails (106).
