On Futbol Island the octopus can be caught at:

• South Pier Fishing Station: The old fishing station at the end of the South Pier. Mackerel shoals pass here.
• Lifebuoy Point: Beside the red lifebuoy on the western boardwalk. Shrimp love the warm shallows.
• North Beach Rocks: Tide-pool rocks at the quiet end of North Beach. Octopuses hide in the cracks.
• Deep Sea Boat: A little fishing boat moored far out in the deep blue bay, north of the East Jetty. Squid, marlin and stranger things swim far below.
• Summit Deep Boat: A second little fishing boat, moored in the deep channel west of Summit Isle. Green, deep water where tuna, sailfish and marlin hunt the bait balls.
• East Jetty Spiral: The outer curve of the spiral at the end of the East Jetty, out past the farmers market. Deeper water than the shore, so a tuna or an octopus sometimes swims by.
• Seawall Gate Sands: A sandy bank just past the seawall gate, where the causeway leaves the main island. Shrimp dart about in the warm shallows, and an octopus hides in the seawall stones.
• Coral Garden Beach: The quiet north-west beach of Coral Cay. Coral grows just offshore, so octopuses and little sharks come hunting.

Size on the island: 40–100 cm.
