I do enjoy going up there, im not the best shot, but i do enjoy it. Some very challenging clays! I try and get up when i can, not as much as i should!

Funny you should mention the weather, I'm new to fowling, it's my 2nd season. Last year, we went a few times when the weather was shocking, and saw nothing, then, on a crisp clear day, saw loads?! I was always told, bad weather was best, but evidently not. :)

its only good for the geese you wont shoot many on a calm sunny day you want a good strong wind westerly coming on and easterly going off i have shot more geese in bad weather than i have in good weather you must know where the geese are on the sand banks to get under them and you must know where they are feeding in the day to get under them when they are coming back on

How would I go about doing that? Understanding where they are feeding on the banks, and knowing which direction the'll head off inshore?! Truly fascinating!! :)
