Bubba, I had been mulling over the decision and your testimony was enough. Thanks for the information. BTW, how long does it take you to drive to Tampa?

8 Hours

It's between 8 and a half and 9 hours for me from Arkansas. I thought, just looking at a map, that it must be about the same drive for you.

It's a bummer, but I've driven further for less.

Thanks again for the Costa info. I did get the 508 glass with Green Mirror.

Somewhere around 35 minutes starting next week.

Hey does anyone know a good prescription sunglasses company besides costas? It was suggested to me to look at cocoons since you can put them over your glasses or get them in prescription. I have yet to find anyone on several fishing forums that have used cocoons or any other brand. Costas are just a bit to pricey for me at the moment :\

Cocoons are tough to fish with imagine twice the lens to clean and fog. Save up and get the Costas.BubBA I am calling tomm about rx 580s in the green mirror!!!!

The good thing about them. They are the same retail no matter what RX place you use. They will be around $536 plus tax. They come with an authentication card that the lenses are in fact 580g. Whoever you go with make sure they are not going to buy Costa frames and put their crappy polarized lenses in. The first place I tried was going to do that.

I think Bay Eyes in Foley is a good RX dealer. A real RX dealer will ask you what frames you want, do you want glass, what color lens and that is it. They then fax it to Costa and Costa does all the work. What you need to do is go somewhere and try on as many frames as you can to make sure you get the right frame for your face. I didnt do this at first. I went and tried on the pair I thought I wanted and they didnt fit! Luckily it was early enough that I was able to get them to change the frames

I like my Costas better than my 706's
