Morels 2022

Found my first morels of the year this week. Looks like fried morels and walleyes are on the menu this week

Had enough for a taste this evening

Awesome! I hope to find some soon.

It will be a while here. Calling for snow and 40’s for the highs next week.

Good times ahead

RM did you find them in Ohio or Tn?

TN

I started a thread the other day but I will throw some pic on RM's thread. It's might be a good year for me it sure has been a good start

Getem Matt! I've heard through the grapevine that se Okla is absolutely loaded this year.

Nice and tasty.Used to find them in Virginia.

It's doing pretty good but central oklahoma is doing good too. I hope to get another haul like that tomorrow.

58# 2500 + morels.

Wow what a haul

Oklahoma seems like the best state for them

FYI, those are worth between 2 and 3 thousand dollars in Indiana right now.
Casexx

Wow case, wish I was in Indiana. I sold some for 25 a pound.

Right on!! Sellem for what ya can while ya can

The last time I priced them they were 30lb, and that was 10 yrs. ago so counting for inflation and local economy I figured them between 35 to 50 now. So 58 x 50, bout 2900. Aprx. I know I'd pay 25 in a hart beat for fresh like those pictures.

I'd bet foxkid from ill. Could tell us a close (to me) local price.

Edit to fix math.

Heck yeah Matt that's a great haul. Our black ones are just now starting. We got a couple inches of snow yesterday so it's been a weird year. I won't start finding a bunch until another week or two. Hers a few from Fridays turkey hunting

What a haul, wish I could hunt for em, cant walk the ground to hunt them any more.

Wow, I could eat myself to death with a pile like that!! Great job!

Had a good day 24#

Good deal. The best day I've ever had in east Tennessee was 20#. Hopefully the weather will cooperate the next few weeks

Hope you have a great season. I sure got lucky this season.

Do you guys find the blacks in the same places as the yellows? I can find a bunch of yellows every year but rarely find any blacks. Or maybe I don't start looking early enough an they're already gone? How long before the yellows come up do the blacks pop up?

great job guys we still have snow in woods here, end of May, normally went we start get them

The blacks will be earlier. I start looking when the 3 day average soil temp gets over 50. The big yellows are a sign the season is coming to a end around here. Usually day time Temps are in the high 70's for a while when they show.

Starting to really pop here now. Found 9 # yesterday and about that the day before

How does anyone sneak up on them wearing an orange uniform, lol.

Really enjoy bringing friends over to my place to pick Morel's,this year might be a little later than most 12 above this morning and we just had two plus days of snow.Next Friday it's going to start warming up a little 48 to 50 for highs.Most years by the 10th of May we are going good,last year was 800 plus 2 years cold and dry only 198,the year before was well over a thousand.Lot's of moisture this year so when it warms up it should be another great harvest,my guess is May 14th we will be picking Morels and Fiddleheads.

We are still finding several, but things are winding down

At least 2 weeks before we will have a chance to pick any morels or fiddleheads here,2 weeks behind we still have plenty of snow in the woods,it should be melted off by May 10th this year.May 15th to the 17th should be our target date this year.

I just started finding them here a week or so ago.

They are starting up here now. These I found on my place, I'll go out for more later. Always black morels, and so good dried to use all year.

I buy all ya wanna sell for 25.00 a pound.
