That's just the Appalachian slang term for morels. I guess it's due to the frying in flower part of cooking them much the same as you would fry trout. I've just always called them that. I didn't know they were called morels untill I was in about the fifth grade.
Such mushrooms belong chiefly to the genera Psilocybe and Panaeolus (= Copelandia), as well as certain members of Gymnopilus, Inocyb, Conocybe, and other genera.
