    I have all sorts. But for fishing I have SolarBats with some kind of Inverted lenses. Had them for years now, and don't remember the exact name. But they are extremely well for me for seeing in the water. It's how I see so many big bass fallow my glide bait and not even touch it. But that is about 20' from the boat I guess when I start seeing them. Not like the water is clear. But I have had Oakley and many others. Still have Costas with changeable lenses, and others. But my old SolarBats are my fishing glasses.

    I wear costa’s with plastic with the amber or copper lens allthough the glass is supposed to be better. I used to be a Oakley distributor but when they did away with lifetime warranty i dropped them. I just could justify sellng glasses at that price with only a year warranty and yes at times they will warranty a pair that are out of warranty but it is up to there discretion and I won’t a hassle free warranty

    I use the Polarized ones from Walmart. They're cheap but when they get scratched or blown overboard I don't break down and cry.

Going to buy a pair of Costas for my wife though but uncertain if she should get the glass lens or plastic? Also what color lens do most of you guys use bass fishing. Local Costa dealer say the green for sight fishing but also thought the blue would work. What are you guys thought on this? So I guess my questions are:

    1. Does Oakley make good fishing glasses?
    2. Glass are plastic lens?
    3. Green or blue lens?

    Same here, I've got a pair of Solar Bats that I've had for over 10 years Don't know the name on mine either but they have the Moss Green lenses and I really like them.

    native has the most durable lenses I've ever owned. Oakley is the worst i ever owned.The coating starts peeling off after a few months.

    Oakley Turbines for me with the blue mirror lenses, works great for me anytime of day, but have used the Mike Iconelli model from Walmart with the lighter color lenses on dark cloudy days.

    Just launched my last pair of Walmart polarizeds when I took off, they stood still but the boat ran out from under them. Oh well $5.00.

    I think I have at least half a dozen pairs of Costas. I mostly wear the green mirror 580 glass, but I have them in black, blue mirror and sunrise as well. Every time I try another brand I go back.

    I used to wear Natives until I tried Maui Jim Peahi's. COMPLETE DOMINANCE. Amber lens - glass - complete coverage for my eyes. Perfect for me.
