The second pic is of a well over legal size lobster that was indeed pulled up in a hoopnet in my inflatable dingy. Is it even possible to "hook" a lobster intentionally?
Glad to see that you cleared that up!
The octopus is cool. I landed one last week in LJ. It was humping my iron. When it jumped off on to my kayak I made the mistake of trying to remove it with my hand and it wouldn't let go of me until I put it in the water. It was cool but I don't like when they stick on me.
