That is exactly what I was going to suggest . . . we just caught a couple of groupers out of a friends tank. Tiny fish hooks (file the barbs off for easy catch and release!) and a bit of silverside on as bait. Caught the first fish in less than a minute - the second one took about 5 minutes. The hook didn't actually pierce their lip, they were just so greedy that they hung on tight! If it is a sleeper goby that you are trying to catch - no problem! Mine totally wants the fish hook, he's making it hard for me to catch the coral beauty, hahaha!
