Our range of highly rated polarized clip on fishing glasses includes a choice of four different lens colours, each optimised for freshwater or sea fishing at different times of the year and for varying light conditions.
Why our polarized lenses are best for fishing
The polarising lenses on our clip on sunglasses significantly reduce reflected glare on the water, enabling you to actually see the fish and rocks under the surface, as demonstrated by these photographs we took of a fishing lake:

 Fishing in bright sunshine
For lake or river fishing in bright sunshine, use the polarized brown category 3 filter lenses.
They combine 99% polarizer efficiency with high blue light absorption and therefore provide high contrast and enhanced depth perception.
Brown polarized lenses are currently available in these shapes:
 Fishing in moderate sunshine and variable conditions
For shallows fishing in moderately bright conditions, cloudy and variable weather, use the polarized copper category 2 lenses.
Copper lenses have been developed to enhance colour contrast, depth perception and detail recognition, reducing squinting and resulting eye strain. They are particularly effective for seeing under the surface of shallow lakes, as the photographs above illustrate.
The polarization of the copper lenses will still help to reduce the sun’s glare even though the tint is lighter.
Copper polarized lenses are currently available in these shapes:
 Fishing in hazy and misty conditions
Yellow polarized clip on lenses are an excellent choice for those early morning starts and in the autumn when it can be hazy or misty.
The yellow filter gives you sharper vision in poor light conditions, while the polarization virtually eliminates the glare from low angle sun when it comes out.
Additionally, the lenses benefit from a flash-mirrored front surface, and an anti-reflective back surface that makes them more comfortable to wear, by reducing reflections of light from behind you that bounce off the surface into your eyes.
 Which lenses are best for sea fishing?
Sea fishing enthusiasts generally recommend grey tinted lenses for maximum protection when fishing in the open sea in bright, sunny, conditions. However, the grey lens colour will not enhance contrast and so is not optimum for river and lake fishing in relatively shallow water.
