There is a False Morel. On the False Morel the stem is solid. A true Morel has a hollow stem all the way up into the cap.
If you can find a older Apple orchard that they don’t spray. That can be a hot spot for Morels.

Thanks for the tip. Do the warm rains help them along?

I'm gonna check out a couple spots nearby. It seems they like the edges of deciduous woodland. I also read something about creek bottom land being a place to look.

Around dead elm trees is always a good spot to look..
Rains will help a lot...

Guess for tonight I'll probably just settle for some fresh bullhead and taters.

And....a Heineken or two.

Nothing wrong with that menu.
The warm weather and rain can definitely kick start the shrooms in reference to your question.
