I'll be wearing My Costa Del Mar Eliminator's with polarized vermilion colored bifocals Kirk.  While they really provide superior performance for sight-fishing situations, they don't catch me any fish.   I always manage to screw that up with out any help.

I prefer amber but I was just reading reviews on Solar Bats Sonar with Gradient lenses. They are good for cloudy or sunny days. All of the reviews are 5 star. But they are a bit pricey. $144.99. Cabelas sells them on line.

Polarized glasses are a must for any conditions for sight fishing and I can't stress enough how important they are not only for site fishing but for the glare that we experience as well.

I have two sets of glasses - Both are amber, but one set is Photochromic and has glass lenses - meaning the lens changes with the light conditions and they are Hobies about $170. The others are plastic lenses and they are Natives $160 but have interchangeable lenses.

This is a good topic because after last weekend my partner got a schooling on having a good set of glasses and how important it was on seeing the beds as well as the fish.

My glasses although expensive have won me about $2500 in the past 15 years so they more than payed for themselves several times over.

Thanks Kirk for bringing this valuable topic up,

I like the Costa Del Mar's Costa 580 blue mirror.  I bought my first pair about two years ago.  A couple of weeks ago I was fishing a tourny on Lake Truman and I was getting attacked by killer bee's.  It was early in the morning and I had them on my hat.  I forgot they were there, so when I grabbed my hat, and started to use it like a weapon.  The glasses went flying into the lake.  Anyways, I liked them so much.  I went right out and bought another pair.

I'll 2nd what Smitty said about the Polycarrbonate lenses being the safest for use, after a 1/2 oz Jig came flying back at me during the potholes open and hitting me dead on in my glasses I was glad I had the right pair on. I use the Hobie glassed pair as my back up.
