False morels

[pipe dream]

Went out looking for morels today and all I found was false morels. Came across about 2 dozen in different locations. These are where we usually find the good morels but now I am a little confused as to why I am finding only false ones. Went to an identification web site to be sure they were false and the pictures it showed were definitely the ones I found. Are these areas no good anymore or do I need to wait a little longer for the true morels? Do false morels come up before true morels? Any help would be appreciated.

The false morel as I know it is shown below next to a black morel. We call em caps. They are always on when I am starting to get the blacks. Go back and check some more, obviously they do not mind each others company.

Most times - morel's will be found just below, downhill from the falseys

Same thing in Otsego county last weekend. Was on the ground at 7:00 a.m. in a consistent spot..Hundreds of false maybe 3 dozen blacks..Didn't see any stems indicating other pickers or a single false picked/broken. Went to even better "secret spot" 20 miles away..Coulda filled bushel bags with some of the largest falses I've seen in 4 hours of walking. Netted about 80 blacks...Since most of the blacks I found were pretty small, hoping i'm a touch early..If we get some 60+ degree nights this week will take friday off.
Water is there, tempatures sure aren't...
