Coccons

[bassmedic46]

I'm thinking of getting either the clip on or wrap around cocoons for over my glasses. I was wondering if any one has any experience with either?

my dad used to use them a lot, and he loved them. You gotta some that are good quality though. The cheap ones won't be satisfactory enough. Imo.

Did he have the clip ons or the wraparound ones? I was thinking of getting the ones at Bass Pro endorsed by Mike Iaconelli.

I have the cocoons that fit over your glasses, I absolutely love them, they are a little bigger than I would like appearance wise but the performance of them makes up for the larger profile.

I have fitovers marketed by Jonathan Paul and they are great. No eye strain or dry eyes from fishing all day. They retail for $49. The gold lens works best for almost all light conditions. They are polarized.

I have the clip-on of that brand. I did not find the fit-over model that would work with my frame so I got the Fit-Over brand in the amber and gray lenses. The clip-on works OK but not well for sight fishing. For serious site fishing, I use Rx polarized sunglasses with side shields. I can't use the wrap around type frames due to my degree of correction.

I bought the clipons, and imho, they Suck..for less $$$ I went to wallyworld, and bought the strike king glasses for under 20.00. Granted, I have to switch to my rx glasses to change lures, but at least I don't get that awful glare from the sides and behind me..

I use Cocoons Aviators that fit over glasses. They are a little large, but are excellent. Mine are tortoise shell frames with copper color lenses. Copper cuts water glare best. Next best is amber. Gray gives truest color perception.    Happy fishing

I have fished with Fitover brand shades over top of my Rx glasses for many years.  Two years ago I bought a new pair of Cocoons to put over top of my glasses because my 10+ year old Fitovers were starting to show some lens scratching.  After a couple of months wearing the Cocoons I bought another pair of Fitovers... The lens on the Cocoons were not as clear (visually sharp) as the Fitovers.  Your mileage may vary.
