Gdog, StphnMartin, and I dove Three Tree North last week. We met a Giant Pacific Octopus attempting to steal Gdog's camera! Next, the octopus grasps a stick while creeping towards StphnMartin, tentacles outstretched. Apparently changing its mind, it covertly dashes into its den.

GPO attacks Gdog's camera and won't let go!
Re: GPO attacks Gdog's camera and won't let go!
WOW ! Great footage !
I am glad Gdog still has his camera. Although the GPO could probably operate it, Sice it is not a member of NWDC, we would never see the results

Does this make up for not seeing a blue ring octo?
