Dave Bailey Posted April 30, 2012 Report Share Posted April 30, 2012 been reading about them in a couple postings here...was out trout fishing today and the shore around the creek was absolutely full of them...you eat them? Yep, they're early, unopened, fern fronds. Not for me though, veggies and I don't get along too well, all the water and fibre aggravate my IBS. But they are popular, here's a Wikipedia story about fiddleheads. Looking at pictures you can see how they got their nickname. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rattletrap2 Posted April 30, 2012 Report Share Posted April 30, 2012 They are definitely behind this year. I have some up close to the house, but along the river they are not showing yet. Probably after this week though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
