I would scout the geese the night before and when the geese would head for the water I would then go in the field and dig pits deep enough to stand in. Before first light I would go back and set my decoys and wait for the big bird to come in. I have always had fun and was very successful. Now days they have the decoys that you could sit in or the blinds that you lay flat in. I have never used them but you could always give them a try. Good luck..
