Angler catches bizarre sea creature, luckily doesn’t touch it

Alyssa Ramirez thought a piece of seaweed had tangled with her bait when she reeled it in, until she saw it squirming. She had caught a bizarre sea creature. Luckily she didn’t touch it.

Interesting! Thanks for sharing!

Whoa. That thing is a monster. My local beach gets lots of fireworms every spring when I guess they’re spawning. Really scary but if I saw one of those, I’d never swim again.

Nature does a pretty good job of making "do not touch" obvious even when they had no idea what they caught.

Haha,Likewise! That thing looks hostile

Pretty cool looking to be honest. I certainly would not have touched it either!
