Went last week and picked some wild Mulberries so the wife made a pie. So good we went yesterday to our hidden blackberry patch and got some for the freezer. And on the way home stopped and got some more Mulberries to put in the freezer. We,ll check the patches about every 3 days now.

Thought they would taste like Blackberrys but it was more like figs.

I'll stick with the Blackberries, and my favorite, Blueberries.

I’ve got 3; mulberry trees. They are tasty but make a mess of the back yard. Make pies and jelly from them and birds enjoy them as well.
There is a small village named Mora which is the Spanish for mulberry here in. NM

Had a friend give me a 10 ft. one and we planted it yesterday. It had about 50 berries on it and I watched the birds eat just about all of them.

I can tell when the mulberries are ripe by the windshield of my truck

Find a mulberry tree next to the shoreline and when they are ripe and falling into the water, rig up a slip floater
on your line about 18" to 24" bait up and catch some channel cats. You can use a mulberry for bait or your own choice.

That sounds interesting. Does it work better then stink bait? I'm going to take some on my next trip and try them out.

Mulberries would be my first choice. That's what they are feeding on under the tree. Some distance from the tree and the mulberry for bait would decrease and the stink bait would take over. I came across this situation one time
at the lake I fish. The next year the Corps of Engineers decided to push out brush and trees from the shoreline and took the mulberry tree out. Haven't found another mulberry tree next to the shoreline.

Think I'll give them a try on one of my rods.

I went out today to scout out my favorite carp spot, where they gorge on mulberries. Well, they used to anyway. I found the dam and the mill there have been removed and just a trickle of water left in the creek.
It was a great spot to hook big carp & check my drags. I'm gonna miss that spot, it was one of a kind in my area ...
