![]() You'll have to either make a trap, buy a trap, or remove rock and corner him with a few nets. Do you have somebody that can come help. It's always good to have two people running nets. It's alot easier to corner him with two nets. -- reefman MC Visit www.3reef.com/forums.

Some guy is selling plans on ebay for a fish catcher, I googled and basically
its like this. Cut the top off a 2 liter bottle right above the label. Take that piece, turn it upside down and stick it back into the bottom. From =] to =]. Throw some food in there, sink it, and let the fish get accustomed to it, then hungry hehe. I have'nt had the need to try it but it sounds like it would work. ~John |

That might work for a Dottyback but, if you had a bigger fish would you
then cut the opening (the threaded part with the cap) wider? Say if you were trying to catch a tang or something larger? Steve "John" wrote in message ...
