You can’t script this kind of moment! 🎣

This year’s $1,000 Trout Tag winner is 9-year-old Carter Sproles from Southwest Virginia.

Carter showed up with his arm in a cast from baseball, ready to give Trout Days everything he had, and reeled in FIVE tagged trout.

And one of them… was the BIG cash prize.

These are the kinds of stories Trout Days is made of. 🙌

More photos + winner announcements coming soon.
