Usually not lethal but certainly painful when accurately placed.

Can be put into play when the flock approaches your shoreline.
A few near miss splashes are recognized and the flock tends to move off (to your neighbors property).

An energetic dog is also beneficial.

My observation is the damnable Canada Goose population increases each year.
A REAL solution should be addressed
All of the BBs that I have ever bought since a kid have been steel, not lead. Maybe you are thinking of shotgun loads or .177 cal lead pellets.
