a few summers ago i worked on a prawn boat, and we used to catch octopus, and sea cucumber all the time..some pretty big ones too....... big i mean my arms outstretched, with tentacles in each hand trying to get the clamping cephalopod off me...stuck to my legs, arms, the side of the boat and railing...(what a sight) <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />
and i had to learn how to kill and clean them for the market....it was NOT one of my more favorite jobs, and i won't go into details either......bloody yucky i'll say that! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />
my captain didn't like octopus because when they get into a prawn trap, they eat all the prawns and leave nothing but empty shells, boy they used to make him mad!
I just laugh at him.... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />
