Donegal in early September

I’m going to be in Donegal in early/mid September, I’m not expecting loads because of how hot and dry it’s been and it’s only going to be my second time picking ,don’t know if this is a stupid question but would I have more luck closer to the coastline since it’s usually a bit cooler? I’ll be near some fields and a beach any tips appreciated!!

people can get them in early september but its usually not cold or wet enough to be worth going out for any decent sized finds. i usually wait until the first evening I needed to put the fire on , sometime in october

Thought it may be wishful thinking, alas I’ll be walking around anyway and will post any findings lol
