Oh I know the challenge all too well.
It's one of those [many] subjects in nature
which require Doug Herr style tenacity and technique.
If you truly want to "get them"
you may want to consider controlled use flash
(as Mark R has commented on)
and many many exposures, studying their patterns,
and patience galore.

Or just plain old "luck"

;~)
