A routine day of fishing turned out to be not so routine when an 8-year-old Boerne boy caught a whopper of a memory that will last a lifetime.

Last Friday, while fishing “at an undisclosed location on the Cibolo Creek in Boerne” with his father, David, and his younger brother, Michael, Ryan Graham cast his line baited with chicken liver on a treble hook and waited. It was his second cast of the evening.

“We’ve fished there (Cibolo Creek) a few times this summer and really enjoyed ourselves,” David Graham said. “We are a Boerne family. I’ve lived in Boerne most of my life. My wife and I both graduated from BHS.”
