You wont believe your eyes...

When I got home earlier today, my father asked, "did you see what your brother caught earlier when we went fishing"? I'm thinking, a Flounder, Shark, maybe a Toad Fish.. man was I wrong! My brother walks in the living room, holding his camera, and sits next to me. I grab his camera, to see just what he caught, and I immediately had to take a double take... He caught an Octopus? Are you kidding me? How? .. Then I started asking all the 'other' questions, like how did it feel, was it big, how did it smell, was it cute, did it bite, did it suction-cup your hand, did it try to eat you? I mean this is (I'm going to use one of my brothers famous words).... EPIC! When do you ever hear of people, none the less my own brother, catching this amazing creatures of the sea?.. They don't seem as excited as me, but I think it's pretty awesome! It's a good thing I didn't go with them earlier, or I would have been coming home with the cute little Octopus, squeezin' him, and lovin' on him, until he squirted ink on me, then he'd have to go! (And yes, he did squirt ink out when they tossed him back in the water). How cool!

So the question of the day is... have you ever caught an Octopus? Or maybe some other strange creature of the sea?

That's crazy! I've never really been fishing. My dad does it a lot, but we're talking lakes over here in the midwest. I did go once in Florida and caught a big something.

woah! I caught a shark once. Don't get excited. It's not as cool as it sounds. It was maybe 2 feet and in a river.

OMG! That is sooooo exciting. He looks so gross and slimy but not everyone can brag about catching an octopus right? So wow! How awesome!

That's co crazy! I've never caught anything like that due to the fact I don't fish but I'd love to hold (as best as you can) a Octopus! You asked all the questions I would ask too
