More Than Just Polarization

[JT Bagwell]

Guys I know you have heard me mention how important I believe having high quality polarized lenses are for Bass fishing but there is more to glasses than just that.

 

You should really get a pair that are impact resistant (ANSI impact rated to be specific).

 

That way you see into the water by cutting through the glare, protect your eyes from harmful UV rays and also have your eyes protected from lures and other projectiles coming at your face.

 

Don't just get glasses because they look cool. They need to serve a higher purpose.

!00% true!  A good pair of glasses is one of the most important tools of the trade.  Not only to see into the water but for protection from flying lures and UV light.   For UV light protection you need good wrap-around lenses that don't  let in side light.  They are not all that easy to come by these days.  Cocoons are very good in that regard.

You are very right, there are not many companies making high quality, polarized sunglasses that are also ANSI rated.

 

To avoid any appearance of spamming, if you want help finding glasses that fit your style feel free to private message me on here or shoot me a message via one of the social media methods below and I would be happy to help. The particular brand I wear meets all of these requirements with all of their styles.

I love my Costa Del Mars.  Best 170 bucks I ever spent.

I know your probably right, I just have a problem paying over about $30 for a pair of sunglasses. It's probably one of those things that if I did ever spend the $ to get a good pair I'd never buy a cheap pair again.
