Thanks for your service. Marine Corps veteran here. I'll turn 47 in a few weeks and been hunting morels since I was a kid with my dad. I've always hated mushrooms too, all kinds. Gross! Always wanted to find them and give my catch to family who eats them. But the past year that's changed. I enjoy fried mushrooms as an appetizer when eating out sometimes but yet to find a single morel in all my years of searching. Zilch...nada...none. I've watched videos, googled, etc. Studied trees, Creek beds, fields, rain, weather, temp, etc. I'm losing my mind of all the hours and hiking I've wasted coming up empty handed every year.

In Oh you should be looking around bull thistle in fields

In OK, I personally find mine around old growth cedars and the dead "needles" are perfect camo for morels. I haven't had the success around oaks others have but I had a nice elm Grove that was good and the easiest picking.

Maitake Mushrooms are Popping good around here and they are definitely delicious 🤤😋

No reason to apologize for harvesting mushrooms.. like you feel bad or something.. maybe take up golf

This year wasnt near as good as previous years, but i still pulled several pounds from mother nature. I was truly bummed a couple weeks ago when i called the season for this year.... ITS JUST TOO MUCH FUN!!!! But isnt it amazing that these strange little honeycombs just pop up out of the ground for such a short window, then dissappear until next season? Its just so amazingly cool to look down and see all this green and brown, like grass, leaves, and dirt, and then see a morel standing there, all out of place. Been hunting for years, and i learn something new each season!! Try and keep things fair and balanced for future shrooming. Lets go!!

I was gonna get out last weekend to look for morels but I drank to much PBR with my brother! subscribed

Thats crazy dude!

I have 80 acres in central/southeast Ohio. Reply to this if you want to come hunt soon. I’d love to scout together.

There's literally just no way to tell with morels for 100 percent. Last year my pops and I went to what looks like a great spot. Not single one in that spot all season. This year they are flourishing like mad

Nice find you found them just at the right time full grown

This guy is quite a character…. I love ‘em, only usually find them when I’m NOT looking for them. That’s a sweet mother load, PRIME condition! In 2011 I stumbled across maybe 30 just off a main hiking trail returning from trout fishing. I left half to “spawn” and took the rest, I’d probably keep more now that I know more about how they spawn. Maybe animals ate your other ones…?

I had some uncles that had woods on many acres, they said the mushrooms pop up and don't get any bigger

U around Knox co area

You Did Awesome Well Done Sir So Very Cool !!! I Really Miss Going Mushroom Hunting !!! I’m Now Living In Florida and Haven’t Found any Here Yet !!! And Probably Won’t !!!

What are ideal temps.

I'm ready to start hunting

Morals? It's not a Moral. It is a MOREL.

Why do you gotta title this video “6 pounds of mushrooms” when literally you didn’t pick 6 pounds in the video, wasting my phone battery

how are you not covered in bugs?

Great click bait. Wow u found 3 !

Whattt??? Dead elms are THE best trees to look around, hands down! Whomever thinks differently is crazy!!!

Deer food … I always pinch em off to leave a little stem left in hopes that they will grow back next year

This is at oak openings metro park...

12:09 the real footage starts.

great video by the way... love the blacked out teeth haha... would go morolll hunting with you anytime brother :)

nothing prettier to find than a big patch of giant yellows...unexpectantly

gotta love the sound they make when you pick the big ones

Honestly if thats public land you gotta pick those man haha, small or not I will never leave any somewhere public.

6lbs ehhh. Ok I imagine this so called 6lbs is just a guess and not scaled. 6lbs would be so many darn morels . But man tht be awesome. 20 mushrooms 6 lbs tht record breaking.

First, Thank you for your service., Second, have you done any preserving? I have had pretty decent luck coating them with flour, then freezing. Thoughts?

Enjoyed your videos from last year. I’m in Ohio too - Canton area (but not in Canton) I usually hunt on my own property and always get something. One tip that I have: Morels don’t really like bottom land or top of hills. They seem to like little plateaus towards the bottom but just above, perhaps because they still get water, but don’t like their feet wet, and a little opening above to warm themselves. Not all, but many. Last year I’ve been getting them under some apple trees above a trail and decided to go further down the hill. Yow! The higher up morels must’ve been sporing down the hill about 60 feet away, at a thin scrubby area poking out into a field. At least 70 plus average 8/9” tall EVERY ONE of them, in an area 15x10 feet. The mother lode. Freaky looking. Why this area I thought? Well, not quite the bottom, slight shade but still open above, moisture from the trail above them, good drainage from excess water, and a smallish dying tree beside with a few branches laying down to protect them. Quite fussy but once recognizing this, even if the right trees are around, the conditions are attractive. These were all yellows, around 1st week May 2021. And agree about bark on a dead/dying tree. I had a great spot for 3/4 years yielding huge greys/yellows until the bark peeled all off. First the bark was everywhere, but then they started not producing. I doubt I’ll find any now there. Good Hunting.

Ok

At 1:57 if you look by the base of the tree there's one, ones you got an eye for em you can see them no matter what

Thank u for this video

It's June 10th. Are shrooms still up this late in the season?

Very nice. Elms are my best producers as well

That's pretty cool man. Getting that TV exposure 👍

Seen u on the news this morning brother ! Awesome stuff dude

Yeah, last year everyone and their brother was out stomping around in the woods as it was one of the few things people could do!!

Nice! A good rule of thumb is don't leave em, pick em!

Congratulations. I had no luck in Ohio around Sycamore or it’s possible other foragers beat me to them. I did okay in northern Ohio around dead elm. Great video and I’ll look forward to my next trip to Ohio in 2022.

I don’t seem to have much luck here in Maine

Don't know what you mean by leaving my "channel name" but sign me up for the contest!

im from sw wisconsin,muscada,wi is the morel capital of wisconsin

Great video 👍 Thanks for the tips I appreciate it. I'm going out on Thursday with my girlfriend to hunt for morels and fiddleheads.

Very helpful

Informative

Only my second season but found my first two ever today, a yellow and a gray. Dont know how the heck I spotted the gray, but the stars must have been aligned. Finally after 20 miles and 2 years lol. I understand the season is about over, but now im confident next year for scouting. The problem here in NE PA is that our woods are DOMINATED by monster poplar, and I must have checked HUNDREDS. Next year im going to be better prepared to locate Elm off the bat and kinda forget about poplar since it hasnt seemed to pay off.

Turkeys will devour them, as well as deer!
