Move went fine. The new server is much faster. Which is good!

I'm planning on moving to a new server within the next 2 to 3 weeks. Just a little friendly warning as there might be a few hours of odd behavior when the process starts. I will try to have it done at night or weekend.

I'm not trying to rush winter. I'm sure some semblance of winter is on the way. That means we are approaching the 2026 Ultimate Sport Show Tour - the three biggest fishing and outdoor sport shows in Michigan!

Yesterday at the Natural Resources Commission meeting in Lansing, science prevailed thanks to many, many persons who took the time to write in, and especially those who showed up to speak before the Commission on Commissioner Walters’ amendment to close bass fishing on the Inland Waterway and Black Lake from May 1 until the third Saturday in June.

I have a pair of CDM harpoon frame w/580 grey lense. The lady at BPS seemed to know alot about Costas and told me to try the grey lense because I do alot of driving. I also wanted an all around pair and I'm very happy with them so far. Go to BPS and try a pair and if you are not happy with them take them back and try a different pair. That's what I did and she did not have a problem exchanging them as long as their not beat up.

Look around and you can find deals on the Costas.   You don't need to spend retail for them.  I bought mine for $120 through Campmor.  They might not be the latest, greatest style, but they have the lense I wanted.  As of right now, they have one pair of glasses with the 580 lenses (in silver mirror or grey) for $120 (http://www.campmor.com/outdoor/gear/Product___88719).

Costa DelMar Fathom frame with the 400 CR39 blue mirror lense... and who pays retail??   ;)
Addicted to fishing.  All the time, any species, anywhere!!  Especially in West Michigan!!!

I have prescription sunglasses, but when I don't have these the cocoons work very well. 

I like the amber/red tint.  Allows me to use them in more situations than the ole smoke lens. 

But in bright sun, the smoke does just fine.
So much water.  So many lures.  So little time.

Guideline glasses  amber lens with the 1.5 magnifier on the bottom. Works great for us older visullay challenged anglers.    been using them all summer and they have held up well.  Don't need my readers when fishing.

I used to go through 2 pairs of Solarbat a summer.  Got to admit Solarbat has an awsome replacement policy.

Oakley's fishing specific frame is the Straight Jacket.  They offer 3 different lenses for them.  They offer a shallow blue lense for shallower waters and flats, a deep blue lense for deeper waters, and a vr28 lense for river fishing.  I have the shallow blue lenses, and they are awesome.  They eliminate all of the blue light, and really make everything brighter.  It is amazing what you can see with them.  I bought mine off of ebay for 159,with free shipping.  Incase you are interested in finding them, the part number is 24-018.

Oakley Flak Jacket - Polarized XLJ in Bronze Iridium - excellent for low-mid light conditions.
Cool thing - lenses are interchangeable, black iridium polarized for bright light full sun conditions.  Note - they also have a hydrophobic coating on them so water drops roll off rather than spot on the lenses.
