6lb footage starts at about 10:44. Just goes to show that scouting is essential when hunting morels. Be patient. You will get there.

To save your morels for later use a needle and thread make a good chain of them do not wash or soak let them dry b y hanging them up when needed for use soak wash cook and eat you can store after dry in brown paper sacks I don't know for how long because we always eat before the next year brings us more lol good luck hunting

This year wasnt near as good as previous years, but i still pulled several pounds from mother nature. I was truly bummed a couple weeks ago when i called the season for this year.... ITS JUST TOO MUCH FUN!!!! But isnt it amazing that these strange little honeycombs just pop up out of the ground for such a short window, then dissappear until next season? Its just so amazingly cool to look down and see all this green and brown, like grass, leaves, and dirt, and then see a morel standing there, all out of place. Been hunting for years, and i learn something new each season!! Try and keep things fair and balanced for future shrooming. Lets go!!

This guy is quite a character…. I love ‘em, only usually find them when I’m NOT looking for them. That’s a sweet mother load, PRIME condition! In 2011 I stumbled across maybe 30 just off a main hiking trail returning from trout fishing. I left half to “spawn” and took the rest, I’d probably keep more now that I know more about how they spawn. Maybe animals ate your other ones…?

In OK, I personally find mine around old growth cedars and the dead "needles" are perfect camo for morels. I haven't had the success around oaks others have but I had a nice elm Grove that was good and the easiest picking.

Only my second season but found my first two ever today, a yellow and a gray. Dont know how the heck I spotted the gray, but the stars must have been aligned. Finally after 20 miles and 2 years lol. I understand the season is about over, but now im confident next year for scouting. The problem here in NE PA is that our woods are DOMINATED by monster poplar, and I must have checked HUNDREDS. Next year im going to be better prepared to locate Elm off the bat and kinda forget about poplar since it hasnt seemed to pay off.

I have not. I have given a lot away. I plan to this year though now that I have everything I need to do it. The consensus seems to be to fry them about halfway, put them on a pan to flash freeze them, put them in a foodsaver bag, seal them, and put back in the freezer. When ready to eat, pull em out and fry em up.
