I visited Magiscroft Coarse Fishery last month with my mate Ryan to open my 2023 freshwater species account. It was a very windy day, but the fishery is located in a valley, so it was nice and sheltered. Maggots fished under a puddle chucker float were the basic tactics for the day and we both caught plenty of fish.

| We both caught a some perch... |
 |
| ...lots of roach... |
 |
| ...a few small carp, including this cute little mirror... |
 |
| ...and finally, we also managed to catch a few gudgeon, one of my favourite small freshwater species. |
Nothing complicated, it was simply a very laid back, fun day out, staring endlessly at our floats as our feet slowly froze! I'll no doubt be back over the summer to tick off a few more coarse species. Magiscoft also has a few barbel stocked, and as I've never caught one in Scotland before I'll be spending some time targeting them when I do.
Tight lines, Scott.
