Polarized Sunglasses for Fishermen
Polarized Sunglasses are one of the most important tools to a fisherman. The polarization in the lenses help filter out surface glare, which enables the angler to see underwater. This is useful because when fishing, it’s important for the fisherman to be able to see under water structure, such as logs, rocks, tree stumps etc., because this is where fish tend to hide. Polarized sunglasses use a tiny filter in their lenses. This tiny filter works similar to a venetian blind, blocking out light that is being reflected off of horizontal surfaces. The polarized lenses in fishing glasses is also helpful for blocking out glare, because glare can cause headaches, fatigue and sometimes stress.
The Lenses in polarized sunglasses, can come in an array of colors. Amber or brownish type lenses are often used for cloudy, low light or hazy type conditions where glare is still present. Gray or Blue mirror type lenses are typically used for bright, intense light conditions such as ocean or open water fishing. The mirror polarized sunglass lenses that you typically see fisherman wear, actually work like a mirror which helps bounce the sunlight off the surface of the lens.
Polarized lenses are also important for boaters. If someone is traveling in a boat at high speeds, it’s important that they have unrestricted vision, so they can see other boat traffic coming from all directions. If a boater is constantly squinting in the sun, it could prevent him from seeing properly, so you can see why a good pair of polarized sunglasses is essential.
