goldfish

i work in a sewer plant. about 5-6 months ago some one flushed a goldfish. he was about 2-3 inches long and now is about 7-8 inches. he lives in a 288,000 gollon clarifier tank, i don't know what he's been eating but i know we have a prolific midge hatch, as well as daphnia( water fleas). he's pretty frisky now and all i have at my disposal are a 20"x24" net( which might be the best idea) and midge flies. i think he's eating the larva as i've never seen him rise.
anyway how are we gonna catch this sucka? any suggestions...

the early bird may get the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese.

    Yeah I say leave him, but if the boss wants him out try a minnow trap with some fishfood or dog food inside a small piece of netting.
