How to Pick the Right Lens Color for Fly Fishing

Lens color plays a pivotal role in your success as an angler. The ability to filter out or enhance different colors in the spectrum and reduce your eye fatigue over the course of your day on the water proves to be incredibly helpful on the water. It can be a bit overwhelming when you first step up to a sunglass display. With that in mind, Rick Mikesell is here to talk about the different sunglass lens colors that Costa Del Mar offers and which situations they are best suited for.

It’s a shame you guys don’t have more subscribers/viewers. You guys put out some quality videos.

[@deaconmigueldasilva3696]

Thank you for the video.
I have a question: I see that you were glasses as I do. Do you have prescription polarized glass for the river?
Thank you,
Mike.

[@goodvibes2334]

Do you recommend the green mirror with copper base sunglasses for everyday activities outside of fishing? If not, what do you recommend?

[@darinp02]

Have you guys tried Oakley shallow water prism lense?

[@Mrslaunter2be]

Thank you for doing this. What do you recommend for prescription glasses? Does Costa Del Mar offer prescription lens?

[@billpeirce7127]

I latterly hv stood next to numerous people with Costa glasses and they don't see the fish I do with Smiths.

[@bobcatbaitstackle673]

Found this video while searching for glasses to fit over my prescription ones. I noticed that you where wearing glasses. Was wondering if you where sunglasses that go over them. if you do what do you use?

[@QuarisDoma]

Polarization might be screwy going thru two lenses. I got prescription shades which are meh, and contacts to go with high end shades.

[@bobcatbaitstackle673]

@@QuarisDoma Thanks. WIll look into what i can get and afford.

[@rocksandoil2241]

Rose / amber is my favorite color lens, too dark and I can't see much of anything. Shooting glasses I prefer smoke or yellow

[@timlemons7906]

Your link to finding these sucks. I even typed it into the search function with no success. Fail. Why no link directly to Costa sunglasses on your site.

[@billpeirce7127]

Costa glasses are totally crap compared to Smith glasses.
I hv had over a 100 people wearing Costa glasses look through my smiths and take their Costas back and buy Smith Polarized fishing glasses with copper color lense in Colorado, Florida, Hawaii, etc....
Costa sucks!!!!!!!
