I live in an area dense with mantis now i can catch the smashers no prob but I have yet catch a spearer. They make holes everywhere and Ive seen their raptorial claws on the beach several times, one was an inch and a half. Any advise would be great cuz I cant make them come out of their holes.

watch 'the fastest claw in the west' documentary on youtube. in it dr roy caldwell details his method for snaring hard to catch stomatopods. good luck.
