The wife had to get another angel and the **** thing is picking like crazy. My Flame is fine but the new one needs to go!!!!!! I've tried the fish hook, nets with food, net without food of course and a lot of evil stairing but nothing is working. Too much rock and work into the design to tear apart...help!!!!!!

I like Ace's method. Just keep chasing it trying to touch it. After an hour - more or less - it gets tired and will let you touch it, and you can then net it.

Put his (actually yours) favorite coral in the trap for bait and he'll go for it.

I rigged up my own trap by cutting a flap door on a 2 liter bottle. Put food inside and hold the flap door open, when he goes inside close it and pull him out. I caught a kole tang and a cherub angel with this one.

yep either that 2 L bottle method or cut the top off invert it and cut the hole out to where it will fit the fish in then put holes thru both parts and twsity tie it up put food inside and he'll be all yours

Very large grouper or eel. The grouper or eel will be much easier to catch after it eats the angel. Bets of luck Kyle. I figured you'd have been over the angel phase after you caught the first one nipping. Did you ever get ahold of that one either?

Small hook and a worm? I have caught plenty of very sm perch (1"-3"), with this method.... If need be I'll come a fishin, and show ya how amatuer anglers practice!

Ace's method usually requires an accompanying adult beverage or 3.

Just received this message at work from the wife:

I caught the fish YES THAT’S RIGHT I'M THE ONE WITH PATIENCE!

WHAAOOOOOO!!!!!

Think I'll have to pick up a 6 pack to celebrate anyway

Don't forget the flowers since she caught it, or you will be drinking that 6 pack in the dog house. Not that it is bad back there since most dog house have a flat screen (by now), A/C, and a fridge. At least mine will soon.
