I have moved from the midwest to South texas. it seems like this time of year would be pretty promising for Morels. Has anybody ever hunted and found mushrooms this far south before??

I found one morel on 4/5. Last year I didn't find so I'm hopeful this year-I am going back to the same area this week. The most I've ever found in north TX is 30.

I forgot to tell you....there were a 1/2 dozen that were 5-7 inches tall. The rest were 3-4 inches.

Jason, The Morels were all found within a 100 ft. radius and within 50 ft. of a creek. It was completely shaded by oak trees, so, there was no direct sunlight. Good luck, Jason. Let me know if you find any.

Brian,
Did you find yours near water? Leaf litter? Were the leaves dry on top? How big were they 6-7 in? Were they all grouped together or did you find them individually?

Found 3 small grey morels today while turkey hunting. Finally I found some, now I just hope I can find the size and quantity that everyone south of here have found. I see someone near DFW Airport found 20 big yellow ones. I am hoping that they are yet to pop up in mass here. They better hurry up because the woods are starting to dry up, unless we get some more rain soon. I must say the 3 I did find were a nice tease for lunch (20-30 more would have been super fantastic).

WOW! There are beautiful yellow morel mushrooms down here in Texas!! I'm from Indiana and just moved to central TX in the summer of 2008. I had read on various websites that morel mushrooms DO grow in TX. But, I never expected to find over 100 in less than an hour on April 3, 2010. Most were very dry; but, after a night in water, they became fresh.

I took some to church to ask people there about whether these were the morel mushrooms that I had eaten every spring in Indiana. People wondered if they were alive, if they were rocks, and what they were. A native Texan and I fried up some of the treasures for supper tonight. She had never had wild morel mushrooms. She said they were great! I agree!!

Hi all. About a week ago, I found three stragglers in the Barton Creek Greenway. I've successfully hunted Morels in Illinois, but was surprised to find them here in Austin. I have a question for Austin-area hunters:

What do you think the length of Morel season will be around here?

I'm new to the area, moved to Austin last fall. This is my first spring and I'm curious to find out how much time is left (if any) before the season is done. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Leon

I found 20 big yellows near DFW Airport. It looked like they just came up the last couple of days. If the weather stays cool, we still may find some more in North Texas. Got pictures but can't figure out how to post them.

Found 6 greys tonight way north almost to Okla. Couple had been up a few days. Thought sure I'd find a bunch. Still have a couple of places to visit.

@ Dina,

You most certainly can keep finding morels in the same area during a given season.

I can only speak to my experience here in IL... I find them early to mid season on S & E facing slopes. Mid to Late Season N & W facing slopes. Late season deep timber, deep draws, deep creek bottoms.

Hope that helps

Does anyone find morels out this way?

Am-Morel-Lo|Lubbock, TX |

Any one ever find them in west Texas or the panhandle- Lubbock or Amarillo areas? I think it may be too dry here, and there are very few cedar/junipers around too. Have only lived here 8 months, so no idea if they exist here or not.

I stumbled across a couple of beds over the last couple of days here in Cedar Park. I have never had Morels and I am looking forward to cooking them up this evening. Is it true that you can visit the same hunting places during the spring for new shrooms?

Hey Carl M. Silvey, did you find anymore over your way? I think the freezing temps, morning frost, and the snow the week before may have hurt a full fruit this year.

Looked again today, this is about the 5th time I have went shroom hunting in the last 2 wks. I have not found any, a big fat zero. Kind of bummed out, everyone down south finding pounds and pounds of shrooms and I can't find even 1. Every year, I have family come down from Illinois to go turkey hunting with me and every year I have them bring me some shrooms with them when they come. Needless to say, after my hunt today, I called my mom and placed my order for some more Illinois shrooms this year. I am still holding out some hope that I will stumble upon the mother lode next week while turkey hunting, but it was pretty hot today and things are starting to dry out quick. I am glad that you boys down south hit the mother lode this year but dang I am jelous. One mess of fresh shrooms sure would have been nice. I guess I will go and try and catch some big fat spring slabs and when I do it would be nice to have some shrooms with the slabs.

Thanks for the info Tony.

we have only just gotten into the low 70's upper 40's temps this week and will be holding that temp range for a while. now just need some more rain.

Tony|Flint, TX |
March 29, 2010
JK, keep an eye on day and night temps....the areas they have been found in are averaging low 70's daytime high, high 40's night time low for a week prior to fruiting. This part of E Texas is about two weeks behind in tempratures, so I am looking at this next week end.
