Six-year-old Ernst Toepfer V has a knack for fishing…such a knack that he’s become the youngest ‘elite angler’ in The Texas Parks and Wildlife Department’s Angler Recognition Program.
 



So how did Ernst earn his elite angler status? The TPWD’s program recognizes anyone who catches trophy-class fish in five different saltwater or freshwater categories. On his resume, Ernst has run the table on saltwater catches, landing a 21.75-inch sheepshead, 22.75-inch black drum, 21.25-inch ladyfish, 21-inch spotted seatrout and 14.88-inch sand seatrout.
