I was in the same jungle looking for this guy many times and finally last week I got it with my sigma150 (still failed with MPE65) ...

I was lucky to get this while I see it across the river/stream... then I move slowly into the river (~2-4 feet deep) and from there i shoot this from far--> close .... this is not closer but just want to share one of it ....

am very happy with this as this bug really shy one ....
