Catching a Fish ?

I have a 3.5 - 4" GSM that I'm attempting to catch with no luck. He's obviously much smarter than ihis keeper....Any suggestions?

Thanks, Bill

I once caught a small snow flake eeel with a hook and bait. If you fly fish or know anyone who does get a #20 or smaller hook, pinch down the barb, tie to some very lite tippet (from your fly fishing friend) and use some krill as bait or whatever your gsm likes. You may have to try not to catch your other inhabitants.

Have fun.

Take 99% of the water out the tank and pick him up. Replace the water you just took out.
