Try the bottle trap with some food. Your going to need some patience with those guys. I have had to remove almost everything in the tank to catch one.

Being a damsel, try net feeding.
Put food into a net, and wait patiently.
After a day or three all your fish will go into the next to get food.
Wait for the damsel and snatch it out fast.
