Burns the Kaw River legend known for fishes and secrets

Kansas River angler Burns, dubbed King of the Kaw, is praised by Maury Wustefeld and Shelby for 67 years of river knowledge. He allegedly discerns riverbed makeup from surface cues, chronicles catches with a 45 page Raw River tales manuscript, and has observed flathead migrations. Biologists joined him mid June with KU researchers to record 450 pounds of channel cats and 33 pounds of flatheads.
