Tako Tangle

Chris went spearfishing last week and he brought home a huge octupus and a cooler full of fish. He first shot the tako with a spear but it got loose, so Chris dove down and grabbed unto it and tried to pull it to the surface. I wish he was telling this story instead of me. I also wish I could have been there to see the spectacle. The octupus attached itself to Chris and covered most of his body. Chris fought the creature all the way to the surface while tentacles crept down his snorkel, across his neck and back and around his arms. Chris couldn't even stab the animal with the knife he keeps strapped to his arm because the octupus had hold of it. Finally, Chris won the battle and we now have five baggies of frozen octupus in the freezer.
