Title: morels 2019
Post by: arrow30 on April 10, 2019, 08:14:41 PM: its supposed to be a banner year this year, anyone finding any. I might go look after work tomorrow. I know most guys find them turkey hunting but I gotta go look.

Post by: Trenton G. on April 10, 2019, 10:25:11 PM: Still way to early here. Haven't had good picking in a long time though. Almost all of my good spots have been logged, and despite what the loggers tell me about the mushrooms liking the logged areas, it's never been the same since.

Post by: Mark R on April 11, 2019, 12:00:32 PM: Thats good and bad news, I hunt public land and even though the mushroom hunters are'nt allowed to be in the woods until after 1pm I always have to deal with them chasing turkeys around before 1pm while hunting, if they would only move them toward me I might not have a problem with it.

Exact same here. I hardly find any on the logged places anymore. I haven’t found any yet so far. Usually do by Good Friday.
