My buddy found a few yellows in stark county today. I ran into a mushroom hunter that was trespassing on the farm I hunt, didn't know he was trespassing until after I called the landowner and he was long gone.
I hope not, 2 longbeards were heading in the direction he was going so he probably boogered them up. Fugger had a sack with about 8 greys in it.
That's two more than I've found!
I'm going out this afternoon. Have heard reports of others finding them as well.

I've found about 40 greys the last few days, gonna drink beer and cook steaks today. I will hit it hard this week
I just spent the weekend at AEP fishing, turkey hunting and this time around, looking for morels. I made it a point to find my first ever morel and when I did, it sent chills down my spine! Was a fun time. It was amazing how many people were out there looking for them. I ended up finding 4 total, harvested 3 and my buddy also found his first ever. Lots of fun and did they ever taste good sauteed in butter with ramps and backstrap!
Found my first two today, looked like they had been up for maybe 3 days, I know they were not there last sunday.
These were under an apple tree about 8 feet from the curb inside the city limits of Youngstown. I spotted them from the truck as I was successfull there a couple years ago.
Moral of the story, european immigrants planted apples, pear trees, peaches, plums in their yards in the city. A lot of their old houses have been bulldozed in the inner city yet the fruit trees still exist on vacant lots. If you have a motorcycle, you can cover a lot of city streets.

I found 4 on Friday along a retired, overgrown railroad bed. I literally found 1 about 10 feet from where I parked, and thought "game on". Wrong again. I think we need a little warm snap to get them up. Never found anything in the woods. We did have a blast, as I took my 5 year old boy and my almost 4 year old nephew. They found more toads than mushrooms, and had a blast hopping dead trees
LoL
I think I found it. Looks like Wood Ear (edible): http://nature.mdc.mo.gov/discover-nature/field-guide/wood-ear-tree-ear
I'm too damn scared to try to eat it, though. Mushrooms freak me out unless they're morels.

I'm in the same boat. The only mushrooms I eat are morels. Too bad I can't find any lol
