description: 'Cave fishers lurk in dark corners near the ceilings of caves and underground
  structures, lying in wait for prey to approach. When it does, the cave fisher excretes
  thin, tough, and very sticky filaments at its prey with lightning speed to capture
  it.




  A cave fisher eats just about any live prey smaller than itself, though anything
  smaller than a rat isn''t much of a meal for it. When a cave fisher captures such
  a creature, it often leaves the hapless animal entangled, using it as bait to attract
  larger creatures. Because the adhesive on its filament doesn''t last long, the fisher
  frequently needs to eat one filament and excrete a new one. The filaments are translucent
  and can be hard to see when they''re still and in darkness.




  Cave fishers hatch with the ability to excrete filaments, but they molt many times
  before reaching their adult size of about 7 feet long and 400 pounds. They often
  leave shed shells in conspicuous locations as decoys.

    The cave fisher can move while it has a creature grabbed with its filament, but
    it automatically releases the creature if the cave fisher moves beyond the filament's
    60-foot length. The cave fisher can use only one filament at a time, and it can
    sever the filament and release any creature grabbed by it as a free action. The
    filament can be severed by a Strike that deals at least 10 slashing damage to
    it. This doesn't deal any damage to the cave fisher itself. The filament has AC
    17, and its __Escape__ DC is 19.
