jkcmj Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 I really don't think the mushroom bags make any differance...they spores are mostly out by the time you pick them anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FISHINGURU Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 I dunno, one yr I picked morels using paper bags and hurt the population for yrs at them spots. Since then I've used onion and potato sacks and now they seem to continue to grow in them spots better.Unless it was just coincidence?

KeystoneLight Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 Found about a dozen or so in my yard last night, left them in to grow some more. near Isanti. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lunker Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 5 lbs of yellows from this morning. Found in a variety of spots, but mostly higher. Might still have some time yet if they are not up in the low spots yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JP Z Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 Awesome stuff Lunker, I am jealous I've still never actually found one of those cursed shrooms. I have searched for them, although I've been told you need Elm trees, well in my area we don't have Elms... Either way, well done on the find!

leech~~ Posted May 21, 2013 Author Share Posted May 21, 2013 jpz I have looked all over the Brainard area as well and have never found any of them. Not saying someone may have but I wounder if the sandy soil is not the best for them to grow in up there? I have also spent some time above CrossLake off the Old Grade road because I heard someone found some up there and did not find any either? I hope you do find them as I need a new spot to check on the weekends up at the camper! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JP Z Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 Ha! Good call Leech, now Oysters I can find. I think I even know where to find Chants....but Morels I just can't find those durn things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Breuer Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 I have picked plenty in the Brainerd area, near Crosby, Aitkin, and in the Cross Lake and Hackensack areas. They are there, JP!!!If all else fails, find an old apple orchard in the woods. You can pick a mix of yellows and blacks in the same area?? Nothing in the Bemidji area as of Sunday, as for last night and this morning... I will have have to wait and see! I'm headed out in about 20 mins.!

leech~~ Posted May 22, 2013 Author Share Posted May 22, 2013 What's your count so far this year? I'm averaging. One to two Wood Ticks a day! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Breuer Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 None. I have been out once, in the Bemidji area. I did find about 30 ticks though! Trip this a.m. got trumped. Going tonight instead. This sun after all of that rain should really get things kicked into gear! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
