My phone went off with that too. Scared the life out of me. Supposed to be out with Dave using his drone to film that buck. That's not going to happen. Charged up the emergency power bank just in case. 🙂

Good bit of wind on the way.. anybody out in the morning 😁😁😁😛

I heard some shooting going on yesterday morning when the geese started to lift and I know at least one game shoot went ahead although they avoided going into the woods and just done the game covers , 

The ole saying , The fouler the weather , the better the fowling is true up to a point , but you still need to be careful as a wind like that can push a tide up at an alarming rate of knots , better to stick to the marshes where it's a bit safer , GOOD LUCK to those hardy souls who do brave it .    MM

I think the wild weather argument is overdone. I can see how goose flighters want the wind t keep them down but not the rain. Rain and sleet/snow are needed necessary for anything. Blue sky is much nicer. 

You can have to much , or not enough of every type of weather when it comes to wildfowling , no point in expecting the geese to keep low if they they go out in a Southerly direction and the wind you are going out in is gale force 8 South / South West direction , a different kittle of fish in the evening when they come back to roost , I have seen them hugging the ground so they don't get blown backwards and the wingbeats are going ten to a dozen and the skein is more or less staying still , memories that will stay with you for ever .     MM
