RX for this guy.  After 56 years I realized I couldn't see through a hot chicks net swim robe at the beer cave.  She looked smoking hot but after I got my eyes checked it could've been wrench in the bikini under that netting. :lol:

I'll throw on a speedo and some sexy netting if you'll buy me a beer.

Why if they are so freaking delicate are you paying a premium price for them?

Are y'all listening to yourselves?  You're paying 250.00 extra for some miracle coating that will wipe right off, and the lense will easily scratch with a paper towel....gotta use some special cloth to wipe them off?  You are all crazy. 

I figured I'd be crazy one time wrench, and I love reading your post and comments, LOL! Let's do some fall fishing!!

It can't be any worse than all these Carp pics being shoved into our eye sockets.

I guess without my glasses it wouldn't matter to me.  If I drink enough and squint real hard you might regret that offer.:lol:

I got a pair of the Eye Surrender ESEs for $70 that the tactical bassin guys wear and I have been happy so far. I think they are $60 right now on Tackle Warehouse. The frame feels cheap but I haven't had an issue (only had them a few months), but they are better than the floating bodyglove ones I bought on amazon for about $30 that went from a white frame to yellow in under a year and they hadn't even gotten in the water. I assume the sun faded them. For $20 (shipping and handling) if you break them you can send them back and get a new pair on a lifetime warranty. 

 

If you are wanting to spend a lot more I have heard really good things about the Vicious Vision glasses. Supposed to be able to see a lot deeper in the water with them and I know they can do RX as well. They can get to be like $600 with an RX though.

Don't be afraid to get the polycarbonate lenses in Costa's either. Glass lenses are nice but even the cheaper Costa's are well worth the price. A site called steep and cheap https://www.steepandcheap.com/rc/sunglasses-on-sale usually has Costa's at a good price. I'm a big fan of copper or copper-based lenses for all around fishing. In Solar Bats,  Mossback is the lens you want. Either of those really make the fish pop.

Great site, and if you're patient, you'll find what you want in the $100 range.  Steep and Cheap is a clearance site for backcountry.com.  Several good styles that aren't on S&C for around the $100 mark right now:  https://www.backcountry.com/Store/catalog/search.jsp?q=costa del mar&sort=%2Bprice

I love the sunrise lenses for mornings and cloudy days.  Green mirror is the best lens I've found for Table Rock.  Maui Jim and Kaenon also have rockstar products.  Kaenon's proprietary lens material is incredibly durable.  Retail on Kaenon's is about $200-$240, but I've found them for as little as $70 on these two sites.  Copper (C12) is a great lens in their stuff.
