The Secret to Finding HUNDREDS of Morel Mushrooms 

In NW Wisconsin we try to find dead elm trees but unfortunately, most elm trees have been dead and gone for a long time due to Dutch elm disease. I have had the most luck around ash trees for morels. Ash are very easy trees to find and fairly abundant around here.

Nice. Crappie fishing shed and morel hunting. Live your life to the fullest. Great trip

Ya got me in the mood now gona go check my spots this evening thanks for taking us along

That's incredible! Wish I coulda been there with you and find that many. Morels are so much sought after, I know some of the viewers are envious, ....like me!

Found two on April 25th in Lincoln County, MO. Dried up. Usually find a couple grocery bags full but not this year. Need rain bad

Cool. We used to do this every spring. We called them "leprechaun peckers".

Wisconsin and Minnesota morrels grow by fallen elm trees I look for deer scat deer love morrels as well and I noticed you put them in a brown paper bag,my mom taught me to bring a bag that oranges come in they have itty bitty holes in them and you shake the bag gently releasing spores for next year's shake ,the bag by where you picked them....

Nice haul!

All I can say is it must be nice! I'm in north west Missouri! And I see all these other people finding a ton of them! , Not me! Lol I just can't seem to find the. In this area! I moved here from about an hour south South east! Not matter the kind of tree or whatever! But I also need to say I've had to hunt on mostly public land rather than private land I was used to! So this weekend I'm getting on the boat to get down the river a ways to where it seems so remote to where no one else has been so far!! But anyways good job to the author of this video! And good luck to anyone else that's looking or coming up short this season like I am!

I wish we had this kind of sycamore patches here but morels if you find 5-10 in a patch you happy in Ontario 😢.that was a great haul my man loved watching it 🎉

Ready in Michigan! Sure hope it’s a banner year! Fingers crossed! Wish me Luck Good Buddy! Thanks

Awesome video 👍

How many hours were you out that day? Thank you for a good video. I will look for sycamore groves!

Awesome video

Thank You

Good little haul! Can you say what state you’re in?

Been watching a lot of videos and most go crazy over slippery elms and tulips. These vids are from all over US. So in Missouri is the sycamore tree what I should be looking for?

You are correct about sycamores being a consistent tree for morel’s plus there easy to spot

I'm headed to Truman lake for crappie fishing tomo Is it worth worth looking around the lake and those trees

Down there the white trees with papery bark that grows in the low lands might be sycamore, up here that same description is birch.

I like hunting sycamore but they are hard to spot

One the best patches I’ve ever found was in a sycamore grove that washed out in 2019 I found close to 300 big ones but it hasn’t produced any the past couple years just a couple here and there. I can’t wait here in Va. I have an early spot that normally starts popping around march 17 but my other spots start around the first week of April. Hopefully it’s like it was in 2019 flooding and humid conditions the last week of April. We were getting 4 to 8 inches a week. I never thought I would find 500 but new flushes kept popping up well over a 100 lbs found that year. However last year I only found around 60 morels. Just hope this years better than last year. An amazing 7 weeks of finding morels in the same area.

never have ever heard sycamore for yellow mushrooms. Interesting

Just Saturday morning I found around 6 pounds in a 300 foot area. I had to crawl for an hour to get them

I live in Missouri and I looked in low bottom creeks that were loaded with Sycamore trees and never found a single mushroom. We're you on top of a ridge or it doesn't matter? We're the Sycamore trees dying?

I just bought a couple of pounds, $40 a pound, some were 60 a pound, Minnesota, I won't pay that!!😮😂❤where are you located?😊

With the price rising, everyone will be out in the woods this year looking

Where are u located what state

I’ve been eating them for many years. But the last couple of years they have been making me sick. I don’t know what the deal is.

What state are you in

Recipes next?

I would be there until dark. Lol

You finding any?

I pretty much only look around sycamore trees anymore. Id say 90% of the sycamore trees i come across ill find mushrooms.

The secret to finding morels, is to look where they are!

Any hardwood!!! Anywhere in the u.s should produce if the moisture content is right! 2024 was a horrible year in the PNW due to no winter & very dry conditions!
