I trying to capture packets using SharpPcap library. I'm able to return the packets details but I'm having problem to get what the message content inside the packet.

the packet using .Data to return the message and when I use it it is returning (System.Byte[]).

here is the library website: http://www.codeproject.com/KB/IP/sharppcap.aspx

here is my code:

string packetData;
        private void packetCapturingThreadMethod()
            {

            Packet packet = null;
           int countOfPacketCaptures = 0;

            while ((packet = device.GetNextPacket()) != null)
                {

                packet = device.GetNextPacket();
                if (packet is TCPPacket)
                    {
                    TCPPacket tcp = (TCPPacket)packet;
                    myPacket tempPacket = new myPacket();

                    tempPacket.packetType = "TCP";
                    tempPacket.sourceAddress = Convert.ToString(tcp.SourceAddress);
                    tempPacket.destinationAddress = Convert.ToString(tcp.DestinationAddress);
                    tempPacket.sourcePort = Convert.ToString(tcp.SourcePort);
                    tempPacket.destinationPort = Convert.ToString(tcp.DestinationPort);
                    tempPacket.packetMessage = Convert.ToString(tcp.Data);
                    packetsList.Add(tempPacket);

                     packetData = 
                        "Type= TCP" +
                        "   Source Address = "+  Convert.ToString(tcp.SourceAddress)+
                       "   Destination Address =" +Convert.ToString(tcp.DestinationAddress)+
                       "   SourcePort =" +    Convert.ToString(tcp.SourcePort)+
                       "   SourcePort =" +Convert.ToString(tcp.DestinationPort)+
                       "   Messeage =" + Convert.ToString(tcp.Data);
                    txtpackets.Invoke(new UpdatetxtpacketsCallback(this.Updatetxtpackets),
            new object[] { packetData });


                    string[] row = { packetsList[countOfPacketCaptures].packetType, packetsList[countOfPacketCaptures].sourceAddress, packetsList[countOfPacketCaptures].destinationAddress, packetsList[countOfPacketCaptures].sourcePort, packetsList[countOfPacketCaptures].destinationPort, packetsList[countOfPacketCaptures].packetMessage };
                    try { //dgwPacketInfo.Rows.Add(row); countOfPacketCaptures++;
                    //lblCapturesLabels.Text = Convert.ToString(countOfPacketCaptures);
                    }
                    catch (Exception e) { }

                    }
                else if (packet is UDPPacket)
                    {

                    UDPPacket udp = (UDPPacket)packet;


                    myPacket tempPacket = new myPacket();

                    tempPacket.packetType = "UDP";
                    tempPacket.sourceAddress = Convert.ToString(udp.SourceAddress);
                    tempPacket.destinationAddress = Convert.ToString(udp.DestinationAddress);
                    tempPacket.sourcePort = Convert.ToString(udp.SourcePort);
                    tempPacket.destinationPort = Convert.ToString(udp.DestinationPort);
                    tempPacket.packetMessage = udp.Data.ToArray() + "\n";
                    packetsList.Add(tempPacket);

                    packetData = 
                        "Type= UDP" +
                        "   Source Address = "+  Convert.ToString(udp.SourceAddress)+
