Mushroom time!!!

[tkfurs]

Anybody been out and find any yet?

Heard of a few random ones being found locally and have been out poking around a few times with no luck. Hoping this weekend I start finding a few.

An filming what kind of area's your finding them and a full editorial on how to suatee them.

Sog, I have a hard enough time posting pictures anymore. New phone and I haven't figured it out. But I will eventually.

Got out Saturday morning and found a dozen. Looked yesterday for a bit and got skunked. Still haven't had good weather for them yet, but will keep looking for a few weeks.

Sog, you forgot to request coordinates of the morel patches. We have finally been getting some moisture, but now it doesn't want to stop, but once it warms up here I think I might get into shroom hunting, cause I sure like to eat em.

I have never had morels, my time is usually spent fishing and cleaning fish (hopefully). But it's something I would love to say I've done, and can do. In this pursuit of homesteading in the city, I want to take advantage of everything I can.

Sog, your always welcome over here anytime to hunt vwirh us. Have a good friend over in massillon that usually finds a lot if shrooms that hasn't found any yet this year. Your kinda in the middle of us and a little north, so they may not be up just yet around you.

A few grey's are being found around here this past weekend by some friends of mine. I've been busier than a one legged man in a butt kicking contest that's kept me from the woods, the streams, and here on the swamp. Hopefully that changes in the near future. If I get out and find any I'll post some pics.

Hey Fellas.

Apologies as I've been in the woods looking for Morels and less time in front of the computer other than at work. Having a decent season but with the weathers up and downs...it's been tough here.  Even found a Turkey Nest.  Been getting the boy out...that's the most important thing for me. Here's a few pics from our finds. (Boy always says he has to wear his Swamp hat...it's good luck)

Nice pictures!  I will be keeping my eye opened for mushroom...

I went out the other day to see if morels really exist. I'm still not convinced! I now know why we never went hunting morels as a kid growing up on a dairy farm;  the perfect time to hunt them is when we were busy getting crops in and spending countless hours picking rocks in the field.  How could you ever beat that type of fun?

I agree fred, I think morels are a mythical item as I have never seen one and its not that I havent looked!

Was a fairly ho hum year here for me. Found a few dozen here and there, but a lot of my normal spots just didn't produce. Might poke around again tomorrow, but for the most part our season is done here.

Nice job.  Guess they do for you and hunt4it, but they are still a myth for me.

Nice find! 


I thought I read temps need to be around 60 for them to start showing up? it's been pretty chilly around here except a couple of days, is it a waste of time right now? We do have a nice stretch of weather coming up, end of this week.

Some guys still found some around here this weekend, so hard to tell if its worth looking or not. If you have been that consistently cold, maybe yours haven't started yet. This batch was from 2 weeks ago, last weekend I only found a half dozen, didn't go out this weekend.

It has been consistently in the 38-42 degrees in the AM and highs upper 50's... I think I'll wait for the warm up coming up. It was 29 degrees this morning and snowed last night, it only stuck on the deck though. Thanks!

All good tips, and all I've heard and read before. Sounds like you might not be too late yet.
