OCTOPUS 101

[congereel1998]

Do Tako's bite?

[LEOFALASCO]

@congereel1998  yes

[dbo808]

Good ending its not very often you see a eel take your taco in the wild. 

[SIRYESSIRUSMC]

nice vid...very informative

[shift613]

its not good to bite or put it any were near ur head cuz if the arm goes in ur ear it can buss ur ear drum

[LEOFALASCO]

@shift613 lol who told you that

[shift613]

@LEOFALASCO

haha my uncle and wat if it grabs ur face?

hey leo we shud go diving

[giuvet82]

Great Leo! In the mediterranean they usually build a sort of door made of little stones, crab pieces, and something else... I use a particular hook to catch them out of their holes, particulary when they are over 1-2 kg... I'll send you a picture of this instrument. Good Dive

[yazadora2]

Can i just squeeze the place behind his eyes?? Squeeze untill his body turn into white?

Is it possible??

[ricin82]

congrats on bein an expert murderer btw

[rdrums89]

is ricin82 serious? how do you think the fish get into your yummy processed frozen fishsticks? you think they ask kindly? at the risk of getting too heavy, youre going to get nowhere in life.

[ricin82]

hope something comes by and takes a huge bite out of you, your a real piece of shit.

[gcortewaster]

you cant jus say "here in miami we call octopus squid" like a fucktard becus if u have anything other than an american sized brain u wud realise they are two completely different things! DICKHEADS!

[meann85]

like the way you spelled wud or becus although its spelled completely different we still have enough american sized brains to figure it out......dickhead

[bigbuggas]

eh howzit leo are you diving on oahu or Big island Cuz da takos you are getting are nice kine though brah keep on diving and good luck

[ddavid993]

i learned something new but dont got the balls to try hahaha or the lungs

[jetmea]

i try that but ended up suking it lol

[ch0wn]

Haha! I was wondering where to bite the tako! I tried biting him once and I missed his brain, and he wouldn't let go of my face. Little bruddah got a killspike instead. great vid! Mahaloz.

[ajitam]

hey LeoFalasco, what a great video and great presentation, you're pretty awesome..

[uretack]

:0 he went chuck norris on that taco

[jollyholly]

puhi grabbed it fast haha....

[pugotulo25]

cool vid.....

[pinnkbet]

yo can you make a video of how to spot the tako idk how so can you teach me

[dredelapinia]

nah no can make vid of how to find um cuz the human eye and the camera cant see in the same quality, maybe you can but most likely not

[porkythepig16]

you are a fucking bad ass!

[roccobaroccoSC]

You wouldn't like if a "taco" bites *you* behind the eyes, would you?

[dredelapinia]

or would you rather let the tako suffer on a kui with a shaft through its head or in a mesh bag suffering, mite as well put it out of its missury

[LittleSkittleshawaii]

o gosh hunting is fair game ......so shut ur mouth ....just dont take more than u can eat that day........pau

[roccobaroccoSC]

What if my tribe likes man's flesh?

[Arsenic916]

permenantly paralized?

[r3dasblood]

this is stupid these animals should be left alone

[chriscellar]

yes but can you please make a video how to find them pls!

[ph046053]

Thanks for the tips, will have to try to bite the Tako (I usually bag them and bring them to shore - but this looks like an easier way)

[nawtee50boi]

solid, gotta try dat next time i go punaluu...

[scrawnyjapkid]

leo, i didn't realize i was supposed to put both eyes in my mouth, i did the one eye in one eye out technique and it took me quite a while to dispatch it (was only a couple pounds too). another great video as usual. thanks for the help! you musta had a good tako day to be able to give one up to the eel at the end... impressive

[muckdiver]

thanx leo

safe diving

[muckdiver]

hehehehehe i don`t think i can bite the head, think i`ll dispatch the tako with my homemade ikijimi style knife. safe diving to you all

[808Jaron]

interested in selling TAko? i need bait :D

[rainman4593]

heyy theres george the moray eelive been bit by them b4 when yu are catching octopus couldnt you by accsident poke one of them??

[chosunese]

but i dont think u should bite them right away u want them to stay alive aslong as possible so they taste fresh :]

[LEOFALASCO]

There are still alive just paralyzed ...blood still moving

[Scar246]

@LEOFALASCO Haven't you got one that sprayed ink into your face or mouth?

[Grkhockeymaster15]

I free dive in Greece. I usually turn the head inside out...but this seems like a good technique!!!

[joefalasco]

interesting,very interesting

[Jayboy671]

Hey man,

I am from Guam and we dive also. We call them GUMSON. Anyways, we usually flip their heads inside out. What do you think of that?? Ever tried?? Good video though. Finally some islander videoes.lol.

[LEOFALASCO]

Ya i have ...this way is easier..try it you like it

[shift613]

@LEOFALASCO yeah its easier for me cuz u can just bite and u dont have to have complete control of them

[UnderseaCaveman]

Oi, great video Leo.

I ain't too good at spotting Tako yet, and methods should be kept "propriatary" (I guess for the sake of tako population).

My first time spotting a tako was funny though, as I was scratching my head trying to figure out why "da papio was so interested in dis rock"...LOL...and den da rock moved!
