Caroline May Evans, 4, was all smiles after landing a gorgeous 2-pound golden trout recently in Wyoming, and her catch is up for world-record consideration.

The International Game Fish Assn. announced the prospect Saturday via Twitter, stating that Caroline "recently submitted an application for this 0.92-kg (2-pound) golden trout to potentially set the IGFA Female Smallfry Record for the species.

"Caroline was fishing in Wyoming. After a quick fight and weighing, she was able to safely release the fish."

The IGFA has separate Smallfry categories for boys and girls age 10 or younger. They must abide by all IGFA international angling rules "with the exception that fish do not have to be weighed on land."
