Survival Lessons Tips for the survivalist, fisherman and hunter
When fishing for spinning or fishing rod, it may be difficult to control the state of the float. Sun glare, reflected from the water surface, makes it difficult to see its condition. The load on the organs of vision increases, the probability of catching good prey decreases.
Polarized glasses reduce this negative factor and make fishing more comfortable.

Design requirement
The effect of polarization consists in installing a special filter that cuts off the effect of reflected sunlight from water surfaces on the organs of vision. Unlike sunscreens, they do not reduce the visibility of objects, which is important for successful fishing.
Due to the specific conditions of use, the goggles must meet the following requirements:
- Do not reduce the angle of view of the fisherman. He can follow several tackles at the same time, which will be problematic when the angle of view is limited.
- Lens material. It is recommended to purchase plastic models, since glass ones are quite fragile, their cost is higher. But the advantage is the possible presence of diopters, which is convenient for fishermen with vision problems.
- Reliability. There is a high probability that the glasses will fall into the water, be exposed to rain, wind. After that, they must retain their properties in full.
- Fixation on the face. Not necessarily a tight fit of the entire structure, it is important that with sudden movements it does not change its position. It depends on the configuration of the temples.
- polarization quality. It can be determined only in practice, in conditions as close as possible to fishing.
- degree of comfort. After a short period of wear, the wearer may not notice the glasses. They should not cause discomfort.
Manufacturers produce special models designed for extreme conditions of hunting or fishing. The required appearance and style completely depend on the wishes of the future owner.
Manufacturing material properties
It is important to try on the model you like before buying, walk around in it for 2-3 minutes. Make a few sharp head movements, check the viewing angle with peripheral vision. Then you can proceed to the analysis of the design. The recommended frame material is plastic. Steel under mechanical stress can be deformed.
The next nuance is the color of the lenses. It is he who determines the degree of polarization of glasses, their adaptability to fishing conditions. Recommended lens colors and their properties:
- Gray - the classic option Best of all conveys the actual color scheme, provides good visual control of the condition of the fishing tackle.
- Brown is for high contrast. It is not recommended for fishing, as there is a slight dimming effect, the load on the eyes increases.
- Yellow. In addition to a slight increase in the contrast ratio, it eliminates the glare of the blue spectrum. Light yellow models are recommended for use in cloudy weather.
- Dark yellow. The best option when fishing in poorly lit areas or with sudden changes in the intensity of sunlight.
- Pink. Application - in low natural or artificial light.
In addition to the glasses, you need to purchase accessories if they are not included in the model package by default. These include a protective case, lens cleaning material, and a locking cord. The latter is mandatory in fishing conditions. Even in the event of an unexpected fall from the face, the glasses will always remain within easy reach of the wearer.
