Sometimes dreams and wishes really do come true, and if you don’t believe that, just ask 13-year-old Sam Spataro of Lake County’s Mentor-on-the-Lake in Ohio.

And then after his (slightly) older brother Luca and an older fishing friend snapped a few photos, Sam did what’s he’s always done with the big fish he catches. He released it back into the water.
