Mushrooms 2014

With all the snow and rain we have been getting, I'm predicting mushrooms as big as Bar Stools this year. About 2 more weeks, they are finding a few in KY and Tenn now.

I sure hope you're right Shelby. Plenty of moisture and the woods is packed down good. Just need some warm weather and it should pop.

The guy who owns the place we turkey hunt on near Madison says April 16th, every year, he finds a few greys.

I saw late next week its supposed to hit 70? we will need it to warm up and then they are saying more storms on the 16th and 17th so that should be perfect to get them popping up.

My nephews found 5 today in Jennings County

Thats what I want to hear!

I heard 5 small ones were found in Greene co yesterday

I saw a couple of pictures from Greene County over the weekend.

Someone from around Mitchell posted a picture on 3/23/2014 of four morels that all fit on a penny.

How many of those does it take to make a sandwich? LOL

How do you find a mushroom that small? On your hands and knees? I must be doing it all wrong...

There have been a few small ones found here in Johnson County.

Some of our friends from church are going mushroom hunting, like they did last year when they ran into a wild boar. When I first heard this I was like "what...in Randolph county???" but it turned out that they saw one and this year they are gonna carry a rifle on em. Bacon for breakfast and sausage for dinner

Here is a video showing some of the small greys we found yesterday (there's also a bass thrown in there)...

1" of snow forecast for here tonight..........roons are at least 2-3 weeks longer.

Here is something thats cool, take a gallon glass jar and put it over a roon. You will be amazed at how big it will get. h.h.

A buddy of mine found 30 nice blacks yesterday in Jefferson county. They are going to start popping up now with the weather starting to get warm.

Next week should be prime time! We need some rain!

I didn't find any today. A guy I know found 17 but it took 5 hours!

We found nothing yesterday in Jefferson Co. but I'm with Shelby Co. on this in regard to needing rain.

We found 8 yesterday. Everything in the woods says it to early for much activity yet, the weather forecast looks good for this week.
Happy Easter.

I found 6 little greys today under a crabapple tree in our yard. I'm going to try Hornharvesters trick and put a gallon jar over one and see what happens. Hope we get rain tonight.

Is it just me or should they be going full bore right now??

Need rain

We found one yellow near Madison on Sunday morning. The wife stepped on it.

Shoot her! No jury of your peers will convict you!

Considered it Keith! Actually having a bit of a hard time getting her to focus on birds this Wednesday instead of mushrooms.

We found these this morning in Shelby County. Next week should be good with more rain comming.

Looked yesterday here in Madison County and found nothing. Hoping this rain will pop them up next week.

Nice Shelby! We have had no yellows up down near the Ohio.

Hunted Crawford County today. Found 1. Too dry, I think.

Hunted Saturday evening in Huntington, with no luck. Rain this week......next warm day should get them poppin' up here. We did find our first wild asparagus of the year though.

Very nice Shelby!

Good job, nice ones

Welp…..you are close enough to me, that they should be up around Rush/Decatur counties. Time to go look!

I was over your way Sat. at Haspin Acres.

Drew a blank yesterday in my woods. Hancock county

45 yesterday.. only 3 today.

Here is a video from Wednesday...

I have a few other videos from the mushroom woods on my YouTube channel.

Wow! That's a haul!

+1

awesome finds!!

We found these today in Shelby Co. This year has not been great, but we have found a few.

I think it's about over. We found about 30 nice yellows this weekend but is sure seems very slow. My wife's brother also found some very fresh yellows in the Fishers area on Sunday afternoon.

Went out last night for2.5 hrs. and found about 40 nice yellows and 5 dried up snake heads. Then home to clean and give to son and sister and brother. A nice time in the woods after running out turkey and about 4 does in the woods

Finally found about 70 yellows up here...got soaked looking, but it was worth it....left some that were brown and dying....

Shelby county hunter...how did you find all those? I have been looking every where and haven't found a thing!

Can you OD on Morels ? ...I 'et so many I dont feel well....LOL.........froze the rest ....

I understand some people can have a reaction to them. Fortunatly they don't bother me-I have eaten them most mornings and nights for the last 3 weeks, plus dried some and gave some away, it was a great season!!

I eat so many at one time I just fall asleep!
Good eats!

Well, at least I wasnt seeing tracers and watching my shoelaces melt ....

Found these today and I'd say they are about done here. I found all of them but 3 under the same tree. These were pretty fragile and there were 6 that I didnt pick because they had already fell apart. Nice size roons though. h.h.

Nice find!
I love to mushroom hunt, that's about the only time I can get my wife to go to the woods with me. They are so elusive, and fun to find. I just wish the season was a little longer.

We found these yesterday I have never found any like this before it was awesome

Those are some Monsters

hillbillies call those, The Big Yellas!!!

Nice finds!!!

Dang!!! Did ya take a chain saw with you to get them down????

Yea no kidding I was in total aww of them
