After having great fun this summer fishing floating baits I have come to the conclusion that a pair of polarising sun glasses would be a worthwhile investment (or at least try to convince the wife she would like to get me a pressie). So has anyone got any recomendations? 30 quid is about the upper limit of what i can afford, also are lens's rated in any manner? Finaly what colour is the best for all round usage, im thinking probably grey but not sure.
Cheers in advance. |

you dont need to spend 30 quid, i got some fox ones off ebay for a tenner, amber lenses, which i prefer for most days (though other people probably like different ones!)
you want a wraparound style to minimise light getting in around the edges |

Shakespeare to 3 or 4 different ones starting at around £10. I've got two pair - they float too. I get mine from Mullarkeys Direct when ordering something else.

Was just saying that 30 quid is my upper limit, just in case the cheaper ones are a bag off sh**e.

I've got a pair of the shakespear ones, paid about £10 for them, I'm not going to win any fashion awards in them, but they do the job just fine!

If it's a name brand you want go to:
tackleshop.co.uk/searchresults/...2c-f80aa2550255 or : http://www.tacklebargains.co.uk/cgi-bin/at.cgi?a=232715 If not find a 'yottie' shop, loads of cool styles at good prices (& a mirror to preen in front of) & get a 'lanyard' / 'snood' to stop them falling in the drink, you might look like that grayson p@@f but at least you know where they are!

Having had a look around the Fox 300 series look ok and 20 quid doesnt seem bad.

I'm just an old cheapskate that wears glasses, so when I saw Poundland selling polarised clip-ons for a quid, I bought five. You have to cut them to suit your own glasses and are a sort of browny tan colour. I could not fish without them these days!
