Hotdog should b black trumpets, oysters, chicken of the woods, chanterelles in the next couple months but there's alot more also.

We are in the spring summer lull period some can be found but worth the wait. Don't know about you guy's but my local weather has been great, nice rains but on the cooler side, once it heats up we should be on. Happy Hunting!!

I didn't want to be on the road so I didn't go to my late season hot spot. I just wanted to be in the woods and I bumped into these.

I had a conversation with a veteran Morel hunter the other day and she said that this is the best time to hunt for new Morel PG. Obviously they are past due, but very hard to miss due to their size this time of year. I took a stroll yesterday at a new location and they were everywhere! New entry made in the notebook.

I concur, it is a great time to find new ground.

What is the earliest anyone has ever found morels in upstate NY? When is everyone planning their first hunt this spring?

I was at a Manhattan restaurant the other day and the chef said he was getting them in from Upstate.

Right? The weather hasn't been so hot for them yet. I was considering calling in and asking the chef if he really meant that.

I mean, unless his definition of upstate is literally anything north of the city. I could see potential blacks poking up in certain areas, but nothing worth picking yet. Certainly nothing noteworthy.

 

[JHCase]

He said Catskills.

 

[hoblershang]

I'm in St Lawrence county I don't see any til around the first of May usually don't pick til around the 7th. There probably been dried n he's telling there fresh lol.

 

[hotdog642]

[hoblershang]

Hello hotdog. Been awhile. I've been cruising around looking for new places to hunt this year n getting permission to search some promising areas. Til they start popping hopefully are excitement can b contained.

 

[hotdog642]
