| I can't be the only one who would like clear or lightly tinted (yellow) polorized glasses, prefferably glass, for those cloudy days and low light times. Anybody have any ideas ? |

| I'm in the market for this as well. I haven't been able to find a glass yellow lens, but I'm currently looking at the Sunrise 580P lens from Costa. Unfrotunately, this lens is not available in glass, at least not since the last time I checked.
Maybe someone has had better luck than I have... |

| Drivewear lenses by Transitions can be done in your prescription and work great in mid to low light. They are also a brown lens. Polarization will tend to make any color grayer then the original color of the lens. Thus making the yellow lenses brown. |

Location: oswego, il | I have a pair of costas with the yellow lense. They are hit and miss with their effectiveness. Sometimes they wont cut any glare in low light. I swap out to a green mirror and the glare is gone. One time on a brighter day my green mirror would not cut the glare on a clear lake but my yellow ones did. Odd right just be aware they wont always work how you want them to.

| I use the Smith's, (not yellow) and I get them with the "readers" built in. I have these and a similar model of Costas. No science to back this up but I believe I see a bit better in the water with the Smith's, but can take more hours of glare without eye-strain with the Costas'. |

Location: Contrarian Island | I have tried quite a few pairs over the years for low light conditions.., smiths, oakleys, haber visions, Costas, wiley x, etc etc etc... a few yrs ago I saw the H3O Polar Clear lense and got a pair...WOW, they are amazing for those low light / cloudy days, and are great for sunset / sunrise....they are clear enough I even wear them at night zipping around the lake ... pretty much everyone that has tried them on in my boat ends up getting a pair, you can order just the frame and just the lense from them for about $35...best pair by far I have tried...I end up wearing them most cloudy days/overcast days.... the yellow lense smiths are decent too but for the price nothing beats the Polar Clear lense that I have seen or tried.

| Love my Oakley Shallow Blue Iridium lenses for all fishing conditions. When it gets cloudy, they actually brighten things up and show more contrast. Best lenses I've used for seeing in the water, too. They have an amber hint to them, and really accent the greens and browns. |

Location: Crystal Lake, IL | +1 on the h3o's bought some last year and absolutely love em. can't beat having 3 interchangable lenses while you're on the water with the weather changing all the time! called customer service before ordering them because i have a huge head and it's hard to find glasses. person i talked to was great and got me squared away with a pair that fit. |

| I too love the H3O polarclear lenses. Great for true low light fishing...and hard to beat the price. I guess maybe Brad Nelson does know something about muskie fishing.

| While not glass, the H3O polar clear look like the best bet for dark days. Thanks for the help. |
