Foraging calender

[oblio13]

I propose that we start a foraging calender. Tell when things become available in your area both by calender date and concurrent natural events.

For example, here in New Hampshire, the white perch run and fiddleheads come up around the first of May, which is also when the first blackflies appear and the first buds begin to open.

I think it's a great idea ;D As soon as things slow down with my project I will try to get something going with that. Don't let this idea die.

This is a great idea!!!

Yep excellent idea!

I always use the autumn olives as a guide for the spring spawn of crappie and bluegills. When they blossom I start fishing.

Back home in Maine, we started to fish for brook trout when the alder leaves were the size of mouse ears. White perch run always started 2 weeks after ice out. Fiddleheads came up the same time the fishing heated up.
