They are a whole lot harder to catch than everyone thinks. The few people that are successfull in catching them have their own ways of doing so. It's something you have to master and figure out with actual field experience. Thier are many ways of doing it, but you have to find what's best for you. Once they know they are being hunted, you won't see them for quite a while ( months usually ). Thier are a few places that are over populated and thus easy to catch, but the majority of the Similis population is spread out making hunting hard. They usually position their burrows to allow them a far line of sight. The easy way out is cathing hatchlings during the hatching season with either a noose or pitfall traps.
