I am hunting the resident goose zone in VA which goes out tomorrow and comes back later next month.

Deer hunting this moring at about sunup a flock of 10 geese flew into our pond. I was a few hundred yards away, but I saw them come in over the dam. I did not see them land. They were there 1.5 hours then flew back out over the dam and continued in their original direction.

Our pond is long and narrow, about 2 acres. At the end opposite the dam there is a small food plot with clover. In the past they like to feed there. Haven't seen any poop there lately though.

I have six goose decoys but have never used them or tried to hunt them. What would be my best setup. On the dam as that is how they are flying in? Decoys on the far side and set up in the brush? Cut the brush back somewhere along the middle of the pond and try to get a shot as they come into land on the water?

Are they likely to fly the same route tomorrow morning? Thanks.
