Fancy one of these on the end of your fishing rod!

We've heard of "Giant Squid" but an intact specimen of an even bigger squid whose mantle can be up to 4 metres long has been caught in the Ross Sea at a depth of 2,200 metres. (Mesonychoteuthis hamiltoni, if you're technical)

It leaves Giant Squid (Architeuthis dux) standing. (or is that swimming.)
