Gus' Tackle in slidell sells them for about 20 bucks. I need a pair to match all my Calcutta t-shirts.

Z's Tackle in Lutcher sells them as well, that's where I bought my dad's pair. Only place I've seen them in BR is Superior, and they have a huge arse selection.

When do dem Lemonfish start running off MS/AL? I want to make a trip this spring but I've always gone out of TX.


End of April thru first of June will provide the best shot. I have always seen and caught the most in the latter part of May thru first week in June. Then again in Oct when they return.

I've got a cousin who runs a boat out of Destin, but he is strictly offshore. I will probably take some customers out of Orange Beach in May. Thanks.

IMO Maui Jim and Ray-Ban have the best lenses and are sometimes cheaper than most Costas.

I have a pair of MJ Stingrays and some Ray-bans that look just like them. The Stingrays are nice as hell, but my nose is fat and thin-skinned from being broken so many times. The rubber pieces on the nose part leave red marks on my nose if I wear them too long

I wear these American Optical pilot's glasses. They had the US contract before Randolph Engineering got it, also fantastic sunglasses. I have them in a matte finish with the Cosmetan brown polarized lenses and the spatula temples. For a $110 they are seriously kick arse. If anything breaks they sell replacement parts, and since they are military type everything comes apart. Pilot's don't wear polarized lenses to fly, but I don't have a plane. Check out Randolphs too if you're interested in metal framed glasses and don't want to look metro.

Link to AO.

ETA: They make three sizes based on your head size.

I have several pairs of Oakley Pro M Frame. Switch out different lens for shooting at the range, or running a marathon.

I have several other pairs of Oakleys but wear my Pro M frames 90% of the time.

The only problem I have with the cheaper brands like Magellan, Strike King, Calcutta is that they're hard on my nose and the hinges go to crap real fast.

I usually lose or damage a pair long before the hinges wear out. I am not paying $300 for a pair of sunglasses. You can get a good pair for $40-$80 bucks and not worry about them a lot.

If I lived in Alaska, I would have to have the best lenses on the market.

I guess it depends on how much you value those things. I have a few pair of shades that aren't cheap, but not something I worry about growing tired of, losing or breaking and do the job very well. Sufficient enough for me, at least. If I can get 18 mo - 2 years out of a pair, I am happy.

If I am paying $200 or more for shades, they better be recording data, playing music, showing video or creating food stuff.
