14.1  Octopus Luring Device

             The octopus like device is made of one kg. black stone which is covered by a black cloth with eyes and tentacles. The floatline or towing line is a nylon monofilament 2.0 mm. diameter, 40 m. long. It is towed slowly in known octopus fishing grounds. The octopus is attracted and grapples with it. The fisherman immediately hauls in the line and removes the octopus. A shrimp-like device can also be used.
