Im looking at getting a pair of polarized glasses, what seems to be the better all around lens color for cutting the glare off the water?

I am a distributor for Browning Eyewear & Accessories and our sunlasses only come in 2 different lens colors: Smoke & Amber. In my experience, you only need these two different lenses because they cover most of your fishing conditions. I keep it simple...

Smoke = Bright sunny days

Amber = Low light condiitons & cloudy days

If anyone is interested in some Browning sunglasses, let me know. They are probably the best sunglasses for the money on the market today.

I wear prescription polarized amber glasses for fishing. It brightens up the landscape and cuts the reflection off the water

I just had a pair of non prescription transition lenses made by Driveware...and they are polarized. Best lenses ever used. I have them in a pair of Oakley split jacket frames.

The oakley polarized ice iridium has been the best lens from my experience. I have a pair of the juliets and the scalpel frames with those lenses and have used them for over 5 years.
