## Caption

One lucky Australian teenager had his whole life change thanks to a single cast into the Katherine River on Sunday.⁠
⁠
The tagged barramundi was part of a government-sponsored campaign to boost tourism in the Northern Territory. The annual competition been underway for about nine years, and several anglers have caught barramundi (known locally as “barras”) with $10,000 tags in that time. But Payne, a 19-year-old Katherine local, is the first person to land a million-dollar fish.⁠
