The Fungus among us.


Recommended Posts

   Sure is dry in the woods. Managed a mess though. Higher places are way too dry to grow any. Underbrush thick and I think we did not see many and went right by some. Some photos of the hunt. Hard to tell by the photo here but one was way back in briars and multi flora rose. I had to hack my way in with the machete,slice off the morel with that machete, scoop it on the tip of the long knife and balance and pull it out. Still bloodied my arm in the retrieve.

    These were in great shape, not full of bugs and ants. All they needed was dusting off with the mushroom brush and split. Yes there is a brush made for cleaning mushrooms. I have one but a toothbrush works,

Nice, you did better than I did, only found about 20.  Saving them for my wife, some days I almost need a blood transfusion by the time I get home from the blood loss.  Today wasn't as bad, just need some ice on my knee.

I'm torn between checking my mechanic skill I preformed on the boat and trying for crappie or hitting the woods to shroom hunt on Friday. I'm leaning on shroom hunting. Sure am craving another mess of morels. I barely got a taste of the last ones. The wife and kids were eating them as fast as I could cook them. I get flustered every spring. To many things to do to little days off work......Gerrrrrrrrr

A couple of nice hauls for early season. Got to get out, but with all the fishing opportunities and the #26's calling to come out... Maybe convince my wife that the morels are out.
