Oh poor guy! If it’s been a few days I would probably net him. I’ve done that with my gouramis when they ate something stringy that got stuck. I recommend netting him, bringing the net just a little out of the water so he’s still submerged but can’t really go anywhere, and then using a pair of tweezers to grab the bit outside his mouth and see if you can pull it out.

This reminds me of an episode of River Monsters where Jeremy snagged a ginormous fish. He didn't catch it the regular way, as the fish had another huge fish stuck in its throat and was itself near death! The "victim" fish was at least half the size of its predator, and was of course dead when he pulled it out, but good old Jeremy saved a gigantic river monster predator that day!
