Does anyone here on the board wear safety glasses at night? Let's just say after my last trip to NW. Wis. I will be wearing them. Quick story-my cousin and I were fishing near dark-right about the time the polariods come off. Well he had a 40 inch fish hit him at boat side and before you know, the hooks of his giant killer were in my sleeve. Two reasons for wearing the polariods of course is to spot followers, but the second is to protect the eyes from flying hooks. What kind of reaction time do you think you have at night when your buddy sets a hook but misses? Where is that lure going? Safety glasses for me. Kdawg
