I've heard about using the fishing net, a friend of mine uses it on feral babies. After she gets the net over the kitten, she scruffs him through the net. She'll have a carrier placed nearby with the door open and facing the sky. Then all she has to do, is drop the baby in and shut the door. You have to be very quick for this maneuver!

I agree, it truly is traumatic catching ferals that have to go to the
vet. Or even catching them when the vet comes to them. The housecall vet
I've used a couple of times ingeniously uses a fishing net to catch
them, the kind with a long pole. I got one myself, for keeping Caramel
in place when I had to give him sub Qs. (I still have to do the catching
by hand---I haven't got the hang of using the net to do it). Kerry
