Okay, what is the secret???? How do you catch these slippery sly fish??????? This is my third try and no go!!!!!!!!!
A tilapia I have been trying to catch for 4 months.
A white koi I thought was injured (and he may have been, but is fully healed now).
A yellow/black koi that looks like he might either have a fungus or is outgrowing his black scales - can't tell unless I catch him and can't catch him!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
UGH UGH UGH! Other than draining the pond and stressing all the fish - WHAT DO I DO????
I left the net in overnight, then tried feeding them around the net - NOPE, didn't work!
Thinking of not feeding them till tomorrow, pull out some squid and then trying to catch him, since they love diced squid.
While I was out there, neglecting my poor kids, I'm beginning to believe its more of a case of he is outgrowing the black scales - but I really want a close up look.
