Charlie if you send some of those down here when you find them I'll lead you right up to the tree where I have all the hogs tied up!!!!!

Ray,

PM me your address.  Did you get my check?

pile of yummm!nice finds guys,great pic arwin.

Even in Nebraska it seems a bit early. Friends have found some on the river bottom but it has been a hectic search so far up this way. Ground just hasn't warmed up yet.
I keep checking those downed trees at the root base, no luck yet.
Nothing better than breaded shrooms and scallions sauteed in Real Butter.

Finally found some this season today and they were all starting to rot already   :( .Great pic Arwin.

I came to the conclusion today that the morel season is nearly over in southern Wi. Even though I found them today they were borderline. Here are 2 to 3lbs. I found two days ago that were still OK. Doesn't take long for them to go from OK to over the hill.  It was an extraordinary long season this year, 1st on April 22 and last on May 11 for me.

It was fun. I hope to find more. Funny how you can walk past them and not see them, maybe several times. Then they just come out of hiding.

Sad to say that they seem to be near the end in southern NY........most that I've been finding recently are on the "aged" side!

Me and my son found 22 today in about a half hour.We are gonna fry them up with some fresh brook trout this weekend.

That's awesome David! Were have a good rain tonight and supposed to be in the 70's by Friday, so hoping they pop up again! What a great treat that would be! Good times!

still over a foot of snow where we found some last year....

Yat da hey.... Another view of a great find!

Around here we have mostly the little "deliciousa" species and the occasional black, but the season has been over in the South for a month. The first two weeks of April is the prime time.

why are these so good and where do you usally find them?

Why are these so good? You'd have to ask the Creator that one. Floured, seasoned, and deep fried they can't be beat, or sauteed in butter with chives and garlic, yummmm!

You usually find them associated with certain types of trees like elms, ashes, yellow poplars, junipers, and some others. The are only up for a few weeks in spring.

Ill join in the fun
