Thanks for all of the good ideas, esshup!

I can't believe how many species of fish we have in our tiny creek. I am already into double digits. I am definitely going to have to post good pictures to Pond Boss to get proper identifications.

I like your DIY idea. I think I can just make two kerf cuts in some 2x4s and put in some clear window glass and make a "tank" only a 1/2 inch wide. A liberal application of silicone caulk should allow it to hold water long enough to get a few good pictures.

I can put in a few drops of clove oil, and hopefully the fish will then make a few artistic poses.

P.S. I also like your story about stocking the "Lazarus" fish in your client's pond!
