    I've found the best way to catch fish like that is to go arms in ! I use my left hand to block , herd and coral the fish while using the net in my right to swoop In when the time is right

    Yeah mine all know what the food container looks like and the shy ones what the camera looks like.....fish are smarter than you'd think.

    Yup it is.
    My GSP, Spot, starts looking for his food when the others get fed I try to distract them because the frozen bloodworms and seafood are supposed to be mainly for the GSP and the dragon goby but they're all little pigs w/the fresh food. Spot will eat from my fingers is sooo cute but runs if my whole hand goes in or a net or the camera comes close ::).
