What is the earliest anyone has ever found morels in upstate NY? When is everyone planning their first hunt this spring?
Katydid, Ironic that you started this thread today. I was going to start it off with todays find. Onondaga County
I was thinking that we were 1-2 weeks out also. If it wasn't for last years pg I would never have spotted them.
Took my wife and 2yr old son on a scouting hike today. No fungi found but had fun exploring. Hoping we find some next weekend. Ontario/Yates counties.
Todays rain and warm rest of the week is getting me excited, sure sparking the fire to get out and hunt this weekend in wayne county.
Went out to a trustworthy spot this afternoon and found about a dozen lil guys all under one dead elm tree. Leaving them to grow bigger so i can actually make a meal out of them! Tis the season and were just getting started in northern wayne county
I will have to post my finds when i figure how to get them on here...seems like lots of people have that problem
I'm getting excited! Hope to get out on Sunday, weather permitting. I have a great spot, but I'm afraid to try morels again this year, after my reaction last year... I'm in central FLX region, so if I find a bunch, I would be willing to share.
I checked a few known spots today in Jefferson Co and nothing yet. Sure felt like morel weather. And I was happy to see the ground nice and saturated. Should be soon! Maybe I'll stumble across some early morels while chasing turkey Monday morning.
First find of 2017! A good haul of 20+ blacks plus some half-frees, only one of which I took with me. I made a little video of the haul here, give it a look and a "like" if you want more!:
Nice Find!! your find was in NY? I have been out all week in my early spots and nothing. The earliest I ever in 20 years was April 28th, most pictures are dated May 8th thru the 15th I log every year, amounts spots and date, LOL
