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'm an Oakley amber guy. The fishing specific shallow blue lense do not work as well for me.

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.
