Guest Jim Traylor Posted December 18, 2005 Posted December 18, 2005 Learning to see fish is kind a' like looking at one of those 3D images where you have to relax your eyes in order to see the image. Steve gives good advice. Shadows are another tell tale sign of a fish, Moving tail, ect. Jimmy T.
10pointer Posted January 7, 2006 Posted January 7, 2006 i totally agree with all of you...a good pair of glasses make all the difference in the world. I have action optics and i love them. I have the fishbone model in both amber and gray. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a good pair. They are kind of pricey and not some glasses you will just want to throw on the dashboard of the car. I got mine somewhere in the $160 range per but there glasses range from $70-$170 so theres a pair for most any price range. I had a pair of nice oakley's (forgot the action's at home) with no retainer to keep them around my neck and was out fishing the big thompson near our house in colorado they fell off into the fast current and were lost for good I definitely reccommend having neckholders or a strap on them because not only do the glasses cost a bit of change, but most people dont keep two pairs on them at one time...and you dont want to risk a day on the stream losing them
Members moose50 Posted January 7, 2006 Members Posted January 7, 2006 ive owned 2 pairs of oakleys in the past one pair was stollen and well the other pair is at the bottom of table rock lol like 10pointer i definately recomend straps on em from experiance. i just havent been able to get myself to buy another pair of em. i stick with the wal mart $15 deals usually. i did buy a pair of $35 glasses this last year and you can tell the difference between 15 and 30 dollar glasses so you generally get better the more ya spend. while i would like to get another pair of oakleys and would recomend them i just cant stomach losin another $100+ set of glasses. any kind of polarized fishing glasses are beter than none so if all ya can afford is the wal mart specials by all means get them.

Moose, Tippet found a web site that had some good sales on sunglasss, but that was before christmas. campmor.com. If you go back to his post on this topic, there is a link directly to it. I just wish I would have bought more of them.
Members moose50 Posted January 8, 2006 Members Posted January 8, 2006 wow those are some good deals, ill probly be ordering some soon
Rusty Posted May 30, 2006 Author Posted May 30, 2006 I just bought a pair of Field & Stream "for the adventure in all of us" sunglasses. My Bolle's were sent in for repair or replacement. I don't care if they come back or not, for $25.00, this pair of shades have them beat hands down. Don't take my word for it, try them out. I bought them at SAM'S.
