Just wanted to see if anyone on here has been finding any morels. I found a few last night but i think they are just starting to really pop around here. Im hoping for i good year but we need a little rain. I love morels and love morel hunting. I even get the kiddos involved. I think they are better at finding them than i am.
The kids and I were ot last night. We didnt find any, still a bit dry here, but my 6 year old son found a buck skull that had a unique 7 point rack. It was pretty cool.
I make it a rule to never eat anything that comes out of the ground. For goodness sake, it's touching dirt people. Dirt!
BTW. just joking....
Time to get the tiller running and attack that garden. Gonna be a big one this year. Never have looked for shrooms.... my luck I would pick a poison one.
One of the greatest adventures I ever had, going to Dawson City in the Yukon hunting for morels.
I vacuum dried my morels inside a large black plastic bag with a hose hooked up to the intake manifold of my van, much better looking shrooms than sun dried.
The Kootneys in B.C. a good place to hunt Pine and Oyster shrooms.
I hunt them every year. its raining right so i bet the next few days warm up and they really start poplin! I also have three gardens that need to get tilled up. It;s goon be a good year for my gardens!
AM I MISSING SOMETHING???( man i hope so!) when i lived in florida i used to shroom hunt. they were under cow patties but were not something you would get any kiddo involved in. you lot r talkin about somethin else right...please...not judging!
We usually go hunting them in wooded area's, no cow patties allowed ,,, lol
I was thinking the same thing totalfish. Only time folks hunted shrooms around here, the moon had to be just right and the farmer had to be sound asleep.
It sucks that you guys are missing out. These mushrooms are one of the midwest's finest delicacies!
Hit a motherload tonight guys. 150 morels in about 30 minutes. What a great night! Ill have a pic on here soon.
Nice find

uuuuuhhhhhhhh................ I'm drooling...... The yellow morels haven't really started to come up here, we are still get greys and blacks
they go good with Milwakees Best & Marlboro! LOL
last time I went shroom hunting, I visited another world for the next 6 hours. :)
Thanks for the pics igigi Ive never ate ne wild mushroom besides morels. Im gonna have to do a little research on what else is edible around here.
Research before rotting liver is a good idea ......lol

Nice finds everyone I'll have to post pics as we start to get rains and the season gets going. Here in FL we find Chanterelles, Oyster, Reishi, Chicken of the woods, Gymnopolus, Psilocybe, Boletes, Puffball, and a few other.
Got a few a couple of days ago, haven't been able to get out again since, kid home sick.
Morels in the spring, Sheephead in the fall. I love hunting mushrooms.
I usually go for ramps too, but no time this year. :(
