A Wisconsin man has created an unlikely bond with a wild fish<\/a> \u2014 and the two reportedly “meet” every summer at the same spot.<\/p>\n

Rex Colubra, 40, became “friends” with the fresh water smallmouth bass while on a dive in September 2021, news agency SWNS reported.<\/p>\n

The strange encounter ended with the pair creating a bond \u2014 and Colubra even named the fish Elvis.<\/p>\n

The man and the fish now reportedly “see” each other each year when Colubra travels to the lake<\/a> where Elvis the fish lives.<\/p>\n

A print-shop worker and animal enclosure maker, Colubra says his “friend”<\/a> gets jealous if other fish get too close to him.<\/p>\n

“I even taught him a call,” said Colubra. “I will do a gulping grunt sound with my throat and he’ll come find me.”<\/p>\n

He added, “Elvis will literally just fight other fish<\/a> if they get too close to me to keep them away.”<\/p>\n

Of their first meeting, Colubra said, “It was like any other dive<\/a>; I was checking out a new spot and all these fish where coming up to me.”<\/p>\n

He continued, “I noticed one was sticking closer than the rest. He wasn’t scared even when I got out. He stuck close to the surface in the shallows.”<\/p>\n

He returned to the same spot two weeks later \u2014 and the fish recognized him and approached him, Colubra also said, as SWNS reported.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“Two weeks later, I returned and fed him some crawfish,” he noted.<\/p>\n

“He’s completely obsessed with me,” he said of Elvis. “He follows me around and just stares me in the eyes.”<\/p>\n

Colubra said he is able to recognize Elvis due to a scar the fish has on its face \u2014 most likely from being caught by a fisherman, reported SWNS.<\/p>\n

Ever since the two bonded, there have been a few times when Colubra has feared the worst, he said \u2014 that Elvis had died.<\/p>\n

Last year, it took Colubra a while to find the fish, according to SWNS.<\/p>\n

Colubra will not reveal which lake Rex lives in, in order to protect him from fishermen, SWNS reported.<\/p>\n

He said, “Of course, I would be sad if he had been caught. He’s my friend.”<\/p>\n

He added, “There’s not much I can do to protect him. It’s the risk he runs every year.”<\/p>\n

Colubra also said, “I don’t like sport fishing<\/a>. I think it’s immoral.”<\/p>\n

He said as well, “If you are going to catch a fish, you should eat it and not just put a hook in it.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
