Reducing Glare
Glare reduces your ability to see underwater structures and spot fish.
It causes eyestrain and fatigue. None of which will make your day on
the water more productive or more enjoyable. Good quality polarized
lenses are designed to eliminate 99% of all reflective glare and
protect against harmful U.V. rays. There are many options to choose
from today, so be sure to understand the different choices you have
when selecting the right pair of sunglasses for you.


Lenses for All Conditions
There are an array of different lens materials and tints available to
cover almost any fishing condition you may encounter.
Pros and Cons of Lens Materials
Glass: Provides the best visual acuity and scratch resistance.
Expensive and much heavier than other options.
Polycarbonate: Half the cost of glass, ultra lightweight, and impact
resistant. Easier to scratch than glass lenses.
Acrylic: Best Value in a polarized fishing glass. Generally under
$25, these still eliminate over 99% of all reflected glare. Lens
material is moderately durable and not as distortion free as more
expensive lens options.
Lens Tints

Gray
Excellent for day to day use. Gray lenses transmit all colors of the
spectrum so there is little distortion. Ideal for bright sunny days
and open water fishing.

Copper
Copper is a very high contrast lens that is soothing to the eyes. It
absorbs blue light, heightening visual acuity and boosting contrast,
making this lens the best choice for sight fishing applications.

Brown
Considered by many to be the best all-around tint for fishing.
Provides excellent contrast and true color perception. Great for
shallow water stream and flats fishing in medium to bright light.

Amber
Excellent for low light conditions such as first and last light or
heavily overcast days.
