Not being sarcastic but what is so special about them? Why all the Hype?

Obviously you have never had a meal of fresh caught Walleye and big fresh picked Yellow sponge mushrooms.

It’s the flavor of them, they are terrific. JMO of course.

additional stuff: For a close second, try slicing Portabella mushrooms a little less than a 1/4 inch thick, dredge in flour and fry to a crispy outside in butter in a cast iron skillet. Get the butter hot first. Almost to the smoke point. As close as you can get to the real thing.

eta: last year they were over 50.00 a lb. in local stores.

Can't forget the asparagus with that fish and shrooms.

Well, I only know 2 things about morels:

1.) they're delicious
2.) how to tell the real ones from the false ones

Agree 100% -Morels in the spring and Chicken of the woods in the fall are the only ones I am sure of - Have a friend that collects 10 different edible mushrooms -Ask him how he can tell good from bad mushrooms, all he says is that they are all edible at least once! that's why I only hunt the two.

I have fresh asparagus and crappie to trade for morels...

Found about 20 small greys last evening. Still dry out there as of last night. Hopefully, this rain will help.

Found these Tues. They were about burned up already.

I am headed out to my property in Parke Co this weekend as it is the only weekend I have free in the next month. I seriously have my fingers crossed that we will find some but the weather is not looking like it wants to cooperate.

 

[ghitch75]

only found one so far...

 

[BiscuitsandGravy]

Greys were a bit larger last evening.

 

[66chevelle]

We looked again for about a hour without any luck.

 

[red_zr24x4]

Two buddies and I made a niche haul in Parke Co this weekend. Sparse at first but we found some sweet spots.

 

[Mij]

Nice haul, the mix pecker heads, (early)gray, (second) n yellows (last) tells me you’re in the sweet time. I’d go every day for a week or so. If I had that mix. Good Luck. N Again, nice haul.

Nothing at all today in Eastern Hancock county.

 

[yetti462]

The rain on Friday sure helped a bum year.

Nothing, except they make good golf club targets.

I can't stand mushrooms, death to the table fungus...
