    Don't blame you, firstly i tried a home made trap and sat there like a dunce in the dark for about a hour, then when i realised this guy is not stupid, i simply watched him go into a rock luckily one of the higher ones and took the rock out quick, then i placed it in a bowl and shined a torch through it to make sure he was in there, his big eyes were looking at me, so i filled the bowl full of plain ro water and he came scurrying out like the clappers...
