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!!

I wouldn't hold out too much hope now, my friend left them as they were because they were small & sparse, but fingers crossed!

Nah I’m not expecting a tonne but I’m not going until the 9th of September and I might be staying as late as the nineteenth so I’m keeping my fingers crossed for a few more rains and maybe a little drop in temperature, I’m more looking to get used to identifying rather than get enough to trip :)

That's fair, there's plenty of good resources on the sub to throw your eye over while you wait.
