Still a few weeks away

I always heard that when the leaves on a hickory tree got as big as a squirrel's ear that was the time to hunt them.
Then I noticed that different kinds of hickories leafed out at different times but I guess it's in the same general time frame so it's still a while away.

Lots of people finding the black ones. Next week the browns will be up

So what are the conditions in which you guys find your mushrooms? I have ever only had luck with finding them under dying elms and of course dying apple trees. I have always heard that sycamore trees were good spots, but I have never found that to be. I might be searching under the wrong ones.

I find most of mine near old apple orchards, Old Railroad beds, and Old coal slack piles, And creek banks

[BRUTUS IS A BEAST]

not much talk on here about mushrooms now, is everyone turkey hunting to much to do any looking for mushrooms?
