I have some Hammerheads with 580 lens. Great glasses but they start to hurt my ears after wearing them all day (I guess from my hat pushing down on them). I bought some Oakley Flak Jacket XLJ with black iridium polarized lenses. I can see just the same as the Costa's and they don't hurt my ears because of the design (straight back instead of over the ears). I like the Costa's but I love the Oakley's.

Harpoon with 580 mirror green is my favorite pair. I also have the Brine with 580 mirror green, and a pair of Howler with amber lenses. They are all great. And I have a pair of Maui Jim's, but those are my "crusing" glasses, not fishing.

The green is best for the dingy muddy that we have here in Texas the blue are for that clear blue water. I primarily use the greens. When I go deep sea fishing I wear the blues Nailed it on the head! Green are great for most Texas lakes and the blue mirror are unbelievable at sea!

Glad I'm not the only one with this problem. Someone said I could heat the tips that go over your ears up and adjust them to fit better. Haven't found a pair of oakleys I really like though.

Just bought my first pair of Native brand sunglasses. Really love them so far!
