Overview: about pale octopus

Clever and soft-bodied, pale octopus are a bycatch challenge for anglers fishing reefs and structure in southern Australia. They can be caught with small jigs or baited hooks in 5-50m, often while targeting other species. Handling them requires care due to their suckers and beak.
