need ideas on trapping eunice worm

I have what I believe to be a Eunice worm in my 75g tank (sorry no pics). I have only seen it a couple of times, but am pretty sure on the ID. I have no idea on the length, but it is as big around as my finger so I'm assuming it is fairly big. From what I have read, these worms can be predatory. I have recently had a finger leather eaten on (the back side of the coral that no fish could access had fingers missing) and a month ago had something kill my crocea. Both of these things are near where I believe the worm is making its "home". Anyone have any ideas for capturing it without taking out all of my rock and dipping? I read an idea about a weighted wiffle ball (with additional fishing line wrapped around the holes). Anyone use anything like this successfully?
