Dear Hideyo, I too hope you convince George to let you catch him soon. Have you really scrubbed out the trap and then sprayed it with some feliway and sprinkled catnip all over it? Sometimes you really have to change the smell of the trap.
Is the trap inside a large black garbage bag that is taped around it to keep it from flapping in the wind? Some cats find the safety of a "hole" more reassuring than an open trap. Good luck!
