got out two days ago with my brother for a morning shoot, started with a few groups of widgeons and mallards decoying at first light,and had some nice shooting for about half an hour---then the skys went dead, not a bird to be seen for the next hour or so. Just as we were thinking of calling it a morning, the first flock of Canada's decided to visit :) For the next hour it was non stop, decoying geese, as small groups of 3-5 ducks were coming into the dekes like fighter pilots landing on aircraft carriers, knowing we wouldn't shoot them as we were well into goose mode by then :) Great morning, as we finished with 6 Canada's and 6 mallards by the time it was over, and we had probably two hundred or so geese in and out of the field in an hour or so, got a little crazy for a while, with so many flocks of 15-30 geese coming in we barely knew where to look, and they were being crossed by pods of mallards, looked like a ww2 air battle up there,lol
