it's raining right now, i'll be walking in the woods in the morning for a look. haven't found any yet this spring. remember to pinch them off and leave some spores for next time. it will probally be a bust in the dallas area for the rest of the year if we can't find any tommorow.

You got a picture of your tom?

Most of em i find under dead elm and old apple trees occasionally near ash and poplar. I have a few new logging roads im gonna check out cause i read the following year after a timber harvest the roads are excellent for morels.

If you have access to an apple orchard its money...i even find em under my apple trees in my yard

I didn't take any this time.Killed,dressed,and ate all in the same day....The land i'm on is loaded with poplars but no apple trees...When the turkey hunting is slow i'll hunt for morels.I have been lucky and gotten both before in the same day..
