Costa for life! Just bought a pair of oakleys they are ok. But not even close to my costas when it comes to fishing.

Thanks everyone for the recommendations. I have to make them bifocal, which I can do.

Love the Corbinas as well. If you like the blue mirror, I'd suggest trying the green. I am amazed at the difference between blue, silver, and green mirror, especially since they are all copper based lenses. Green seems to do best on the water at TR.

Does the green cut down the light in the bright sun better than blue? The primary reason I bought the blues was more for sun protection rather than visibility. If the greens are even better than the blues I know what my next pair will be.

I have green Costas, love them. Dunno about blue vs green though.

Cocoons, fit over whatever script glasses I wear. Plus when you get them from johnnies outlet store theyre easy on the pocket

I had to wear cocoons after I got Shingles in part of my eye. Couldn't wear contacts for a bit. They work great over glasses but man they aren't too attractive. I call any glasses that are ugly Birth Control glasses and those definitely qualify. Ha. Work great over another pair though.

I knew this was the best place to go. You guys are awesome. I am going with the costas . Tuna Alley with green lenses. They make them with readers(2.50)which is exactly what I need. Thanks again.

All I know is you might have to canted your head to get a bright picture on graph. I have Costas but had to go to Amber or brown or whatever. I had the person in Cabeles bring them back to the graphs to test. My dark Costas were not very good unless I canted my head. Same on car gps.

Here's my take on the sunglass topic. I'm a local eye doctor & lifetime fisherman. I've carried countless brands throughout the years in my practice & found it's hard to beat Wiley X for price & quality. All are Z87.1 safety lenses & frames for you guys that really like to set the hook. A lot of the frames have a removable foam insert that is great for wind,dust,etc. Most frames are easy to put your RX in. Military uses these because they are safety grade. A frontside mirror coating combined with a backside anti reflective coating will is my favorite. Can't go wrong with amber or gray lenses. Anyway,lots of good products out there now .This is just my take. Smith makes a great sunglass as well-second favorite . Fish on!
