Fisherman Myron Jensen Hooks Big Wapsie Pike
Persistent teen Myron Jensen, 17, trailed a 30 inch six pound pike in the Wapsie river at Quasqueton after a prior failed catch. The fight lasted five minutes as he used a light fly rod. Scotty, known as king of the holones, sits in Linn County jail with a six month sentence for brick tossing. Britt Hoboday celebration proceeds without the monarch.
