Re: Polarized lens
i like green and copper for sight fishing off the pier Blue is for off shore if you looking at Costa go with the 580's they are worth it :headbang:

Re: Polarized lens
I have a pair of costa land sharks 580 with blue lens and have always wondered about the green lens. I also have some Maui Jim's with black lens but they don't work that well in dark colored water .

Re: Polarized lens
Copper with green mirror is the best color for fishing the water on the gulf coast. It gives a bit of contrast to the emerald green water which makes it a bit easier to see fish.

Re: Polarized lens
Would a blue mirror finish with a copper lens be alright? Talked to a company just now and they are able to get me a prescription copper lens but they do not carry it with a green mirror finish.

Thats weird. You can only get copper with Green mirror RX from Costa. If you get the Blue, it comes with a grey lens.

Re: Polarized lens
It is not a pair of costas. It is from lens crafters in Mobile they have some polarized sunglasses that are a bit less expensive. Which is why I am asking if the mirror color affects the glasses, I know the lens one does, just not the finish :\

Re: Polarized lens
I found out that you can not even get mirror with 580p's coppers, with transition lenses, very expensive, but nice to fish with.

Well, after several hours making phone calls, I was able to track down a certain manufacturer’s service center in California. Thankfully, they agreed to send out my needed parts. These were left over...
You would think I would know this!
