GUIDE SAVER

Description

The Guide Saver is a bold and effective attractor nymph designed for those times when subtle patterns simply aren’t getting the job done. With its vibrant color palette—most often featuring hot orange, pink, or chartreuse bodies—and a contrasting hot spot collar, these fly fishing flies are built to grab attention and trigger aggressive takes, even under challenging conditions. The addition of a tungsten bead ensures it sinks quickly into the strike zone, making it perfect for faster currents or deeper pools.

Tied on a jig hook, the Guide Saver rides hook-point up, reducing snags and improving hook-ups. It’s a favorite among professional guides who rely on this pattern as a “saver fly” to turn slow days around. Whether you’re dealing with stained water, pressured fish, or need something different to stir up action, this pattern is a reliable option.

Use it as an anchor in a Euro-nymph rig or under an indicator in a two-fly setup. The Guide Saver isn’t just flashy—it’s proven—a must-have for any angler looking to cover water and provoke a response.
