I caught a giant squid once.

I was in the pressure tank.

NZ fisherman catch collosal squid. It took two hours to land it and was nearly dead when they got it aboard. Then they froze it. Isn't there a way to keep these things alive? Pressure tanks?bbc


Probably not. They can't tolerate the change in pressure as they're being brought in. I was listening to a marine expert talking about it on the radio yesterday.

Hey, this popped up in the news. That squid caught by the Kiwis was put into a deep freeze when caught and now they are trying to plan a way to thaw it for study. They want to make it all thawed at once and are considering an industrial sized microwave.
