Peter O Reilly has one (Filmed on Lough Conn) and there is a fella from Lough Derg Area with one out. Cant remember the names of either. Roy Pierce has a faily recent one filmed on the Corrib. You can only buy from him direct. Google Grasshopper Cottage.

Tell you buddy to look at Cong this year, Corrib has been a big pile of Sh!te for the last 4 years, with hatches very thin on the Ground and very few fish rising. As a result I have not booked my Mayfly week on Corrib for the first time in 9 years.

Good luck with the search.
