Polarized glasses
Looking to get a nice pair of polarized glasses specifically geared towards inshore fishing. Looking to see what all you guys recommend. Really looking to get a pair of glasses that can cut through the water so I can see subsurface fish more clearly. Any advice is welcome. As always, thank you fellow anglers. Tight lines!

Yea, I was looking at those. You say that they scratch easily? Do you happen to know what type of lenses you have?

They are 5-6 years old. I took them to the booth at the FHS a couple years ago and they guy told me to mail them in with a check and they would evaluate them. Wasn't looking for an instant replacement, but wasn't looking to shell out more $ just to have them "evaluated". They are now one of the sets I wear when operating powertools in the yard |

What are your guys' preferences when it comes to lens color? I think the green mirror looks like it may cut into the water nicely? What color do you guys have and do you like it?

I'm super light sensitive so I'm VERY particular about what lenses I wear. I've tried A LOT.
Costa Spy Smith Maui Electric My absolute favorite I've tried so far (for on the water use) are the Oakley Prizm lenses, specifically for deep water. https://www.oakley.com/en-us/lens-gu...ater-polarized I've used them in all water depths and have been very happy. Easily see reef off Catalina in +/- 20'. Gets the Calis hooked before anyone else sees em. I swear I've never seen the world more clear then with these shades. Light weight, sticks to a sunscreen covered face, and fantastic optics. I highly recommend checking them out. |
