Thanks for all your advice. I went round to look at the fish and setup yesterday to get an idea of how big it was etc. What I found was a huge arow with a bashed up face, mangled barbels, gill curl on one side. They guy then told me that it only feeds on live mice and goldfish. I had planned to put it in my pond but i've got smaller but not small fish in there and I didn;t want to risk them getting eating by that beast and I will never ever feed anything live mice, that's just too barbaric for me. Weighing up the hassle of moving it and then having to go through the trials of getting it to eat prawns I decided not to do it. So I turned it down.
The pillow case idea seems like a good one, I'd have used that. The towel might be ok but I don;t see how you could catch it in a towel without it going mental before you got a hold of it?
