Hello,

 

The "thing" your speaking of sounds like what I had once. It actually sucks blood from the fish but is white clearish in color. If your seeing brown it must have sucked a little blood from the fish already. Luckily I caught mines with the net. Simply net the fish and use some tweezers to pull it off. Kinda like a flea but deadly to fish. I think over at R/C they have a picture of it. Really ugly looking booger.

 

Good Luck,

 

;)
