mushrooms

[Hubcat]

They are starting to show up in Southcentral Minnesota.
A friend of mine found about a dozen greys last night.

I checked one of my favorite metro spots along the MN river on Saturday and didn't find anything. Ground was mostly dry/hard w/ very little green popping up yet. Even where I found ground moisture, I still didn't find any shrooms.

I went out today for a quick look around and didn't see a thing. I think that the ground is a little dry, maybe when it rains a good half inch or so.

Ive been checking a couple early spots for the last week. Found some very small ones yesterday and looked at them this morning and they about doubled in size. Warmer weather in the forecast along with more rain will make this weekend a good time to trade the fishing poles for a jack knife. Hunting mushrooms instead of walleyes. These were south of LaCrosse on a flat area with small dead elms present. Happy picking!!!

Did ya here about the mushroom that went into the bar and asked for a drink? The bartender said "get out of here, we don't serve your kind in here" and the mushroom replied "why not? I'm a fungi"

I need some tips on where to look for morels. I live next to the Sherburne Wildlife refuge and Sand Dunes S.F. I assume there are mushrooms somewhere in there but its overwhelming if you don't know where to begin. What types of areas should I be looking at? any tips or specific areas to look would be appreciated...

[Guest]

A friend of mine collected a huge bag full of morels a couple days ago in his yard in Battle Lake. I'm going to start searching myself!

[Guest]

Went out for the first "pre" hunt of the season about 10 miles south of Isle. No half frees or greys yet. Trying again this weekend and will keep ya posted.

Checked a real good spot near Cannon Falls and found nothing after the rainfall.

[Russ&Judy]

We were at mom's on mothers day near Garrison , saw nothing, the ground is soaked with water and way to cold yet, the frost is just starting to come out there with the clay ground;

[Scott Steil]

Just for fun I check yesterday in the bad weather. Nothing yet. THIS IS THE WEEK!! All the indicators point to this being the week. We need a few warm sunny days now and today is a good start. I have heard of a few reports in MN but mostly in areas that have full sun exposure. It takes a lot of sun to warm the floor of a thick woods. The forcast this week looks perfect after the weekend rains.

I'm still picking in the LaCrosse area. Found 5lbs so far and some were getting pretty big. Alot of pickers looking and not finding. I concentrate my efforts on the dead elm and it's been paying off. This week will get them going better, but we sure could use some warmer nights 50+ degrees

Mushrooms are Heaven

[Bogsucker]

Found 1/2 pound in Rochester Friday.

[Sarge]

Leah and I found a couple pounds of beautiful 2 to 5 inch morels Saturday in Filmore county. Both greys and tans. I thought I used to like the tans better, but these greys had more "meat" to them.

Went back to the spot Leah found the "mother load", today, and several more had popped up!

[Hubcat]

found about 75 in one spot today (1 to 2 inches and grey) near mankato

[Guest]

Got some today, 20 or so greys, 20 or so 2" to 4". The 2-4's we walked buy on Friday. We found a few greys that day. I got pictures RUSS!!! Snapfissoronie!!!! How the @#$% do you post pictures???

What's up with crapheads???? I'm ready for some more.

Good luck.

[redhooks]

We found 7 last night in the Grand Rapids area so the fun is just beginning!!!!!!!!!

[HOGEYE]

The morels are starting to pop up around here in Lake of the Woods County.

[Guest]

Well this is only my second season hunting Morels in MN. Where I used to live there were plenty of dead and dieing elms to find your treasures around. My question, since last year was a bust for me, is with the abundance of bog and lack of elms where are some areas you guys key in on in this part of the country to find them...all this pertains to Mille Lacs and North?????

[Russ&Judy]

someone just got my slow moving mind off slow; let me check in with someone that knows who owns the land that was clear cut 8+ years ago , you may want to have 4 wheelers;; we will stay in touch; let me make those phone calls first, In the Garrison aere, we may need permission?

[Fourplay]

Found about 30 last night near Bemidji.

[bluebill97]

Found 3 grays and 4 yellows today neer chaska

[swampman]

picked about 30 last night in central wright county, greys and yellows right together. got them on a side hill that would have made a mountain goat nervous.hill had a southern exposure and they hadnt been up long so there should be some time left if it doesnt dry out to soon.going out again this weekend as i am a long way from getting my fill. my kids like them to much so theres less for me.
