I also found my earliest Morels this year on March 5th. In Charlotte, NC. My previous earliest date was March 20th.They love Ash trees and privet here. Ended the season with 206 Morels. It was a strange season where they came up early, then stopped, then had a second flush about three weeks later.

My first year hunting morel's in Oklahoma was AMAZING. It would be nothing to find over 250 in one hunt. 450 plus was our best day ever. Always in the same areas. Never 8 hours worth. over time, 3 or 4 years later, other people started hunting the land, we seldom ever go there anymore. A friend of ours has just a pinch of property and the morels grow in his front yard literally! He doesn't eat them (WHAT!!!) GIANT ones grow in a few spots, huge monsters! upwards of 9 inches. We get more than enough morels to last us and share with our son on his small patch of land (it. is. insane.) We never pick every single one we see. They are such a blessing for us to enjoy and we never have picked every single one we have seen either. The nice thing about our friends place is we don't have to worry about the wild hogs rooting or coming through. We have been blessed to avoid it but we have seen their destruction in the woods/forest. Thank you for your video!!

Man that is a haul for March 1 or any time. You are blessed brother!
Seems like everybody who hunts for shrooms has their own "Lore" about them. I've got a nice patch of the greys down near the river edge that always produced well, then one year they just stopped coming up for no reason. I need to get back down there and see if they came back. Some fine eating little greys go great with wild turkey breast!
I can't imagine finding them that early in Iowa! That is totally awesome!
Best eating mushrooms .. they're the gold of all wild mushrooms...hahaha
Mesh bags really help to do less dmg and keep air flow.. also drop spores as you walk.
Blah blah blah....nothing like beating a dad cat huh Karen? Hush
Catman... please show us how to prepare and cook them!!!
I would be happy with that for the first pick of the year.
Where I'm at if I find a few early and it cools back off then when they're back it's a short season it seems
I Really Miss Hunting For Mushrooms In the Spring up in IL. and IA. !!! But I Now Live in FL. and They Don’t Grow down here !!! At least I’ve Never Found Any Here !!!
Like your videos more. Maple syruping gives you something to do this time of year. I produce about one gallon a year. Cool hobby and it's delicious
Mesh bags are hard on mushrooms.
Do no other animals eat them? I've never looked for them but I hear they are good to eat.
Yes deer will eat them.
Turkey
Squirrels get them quick
What state are you hunting in ? Im in central va
Baked venison steak in creamy morel gravy. Yum
Lucky where I live now not finding them.
Awesome. Very nice.
Wow. Nice
Those elm are what we look for in Iowa/Wisconsin. Chinese Elm are a go to
Same for us in northwestern Missouri, although I moved to southern Kansas a few years back, and have been trying like hell to find some honey holes. No dice so far. I've got a couple new spots scouted that apparently had morels in years past, so I'm hoping to find success this year!
South facing hillside with fallen trees in the timber was the honey hole in No Central Illinois but about a month later in year. Also some warm humid weather was the trigger.
So cool how you know all the trees. Thanks for your videos!
WOW that's early I need to get out where I live
Where do you find these. I mean what are they around the most
I would love to taste these. They do not grow in my area. I have been told the only mushrooms that grow around my house are ones you cannot eat if you have kids. Catman, if you want to come hunt some turkeys on the Georgia coast hit me up.
Love that first batch!!! Awesome video!
What state are you finding these in
Yummy - yummy. Great video; great hunting.
nice pull. the smaller the better tasting. like any living thing we eat!!! and forget the mesh bag thing. theyre not even throwing spores off at the stage youre picking them, and the mesh bag will shred your morels if your out for hours piling them up in the bag.
Here in Ohio I've found blacks March 21st the earliest ever for me please mushroom Gods be good this yr yummy and yummy thanks for video catman gets me fired up
Think they're up in indiana.
I’m in Weakley County. What features are you looking for?
Nice haul. I'm in Michigan, we have another month before the yellows come up. What state do you live in?
Wow early! My second favorite behind chanterelles.
I cannot wait for temps to warm up here in Southern Oregon. I'm ready for a great hike full of morels!😀
Dude! That is a hell of a mushroom patch! Have you been back?
Its too early where I am in Indiana but you can see the soil temp maps are about right up until Louisville and it just cuts off there and is lower temps above said line. This is definitely going to be the year they pop up earlier.
