I'd be pretty cautious about letting an octopus grab me, even if it was a small one. They have a beak like a parrot, and can take a chunk out of your hand in a flash. If I were you, and you encounter an octopus at close range again, I'd try and nail it with a hand spear <img src='http://www.squidfish.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':th' />
