Re: Eye protection (shades)

After much research and head scratching, I am now the proud owner of a pair of Smith Transfer XL's. Wow. These babies are clear. Granted, I'm comparing them to the scratched Bimini Bays I've been wearing, but so far, very pleased.

Re: Flounder

Seawalls, bridges and dock pilings are a great place to start. Some folks have their own private inshore spots around underwater structure. When I target flounder by hook and line, I'm usually around St George Island/Apalachicola. At SGI, are they ever found in on the bay side? We stay in the summe...

Re: North FL Game Camera Captures 2017-2018 Season

Excellent move with the disposable gloves. My Daddy said he went to a DNR workshop in GA and they said 6/10 hogs in GA carry brucellosis (have to imagine it's in FL similarly). While carriers are supposedly safe to eat, humans can get sick from handling them. It has all but broke me completely from ...

Re: Eye protection (shades)

I've been using RCI Optics (click the logo in below for the site) for quite a few years now and they exceed all of my expectations on-and-off the water. I've worn Costas, good glasses, but just not my gig. I have a couple pairs here in Tallahassee if you want to try the fit (Mosquito Lagoon & M...

Re: Eye protection (shades)

I agree with Salty Gator. Had Smith, switched to Costa's, and now back to Smiths. I broke my first pair of Smiths by stepping on them. Dumb move! At that time, Smiths didn't have big saltwater presence, and I bought my previous pair while living out west fishing for steelhead and salmon. I couldn't...

Re: Eye protection (shades)

Have been wearing Costas for nearly 30 years. Excellent polarization and protection against UV rays. Don't go outside without a pair on. Recently sent back a pair that was 20 years old and they gave me a code to order a replacement pair on-line for a modest charge. Well worth it to me. Copper or am...

Eye protection (shades)

Considering stepping up to some quality shades. Looking at some Costas. Just curious what you guys like and have had success with. Are there other brands you would suggest. Thank you.

Might check Craigslist and FB classifieds to see if it shows up. Local pawn shops too.
