Here are benefits of polarized sunglasses for deep sea fishing

Deep sea fishing is not just a sport, but one of those events that can easily become a highlight of the season. Whether it’s a father/son outing, a family bonding event, or a day out with friends, deep sea fishing can provide memories that last a lifetime.

Picture this. You wake up before dawn begins, load up the fishing gear, and you get down to the pier. There, you find a few spots at the rail, set up your rod and  arrange the bait, ensuring everything is properly ready. 

Now, with the sun peeking over the horizon, the party boat heads out tracking schools of fish. You find one and drop your line. Before long, the line goes taut and the reel begins to unwind. And you, well you are about to experience the thrill of pulling in your first fish of the day.

Polarized glasses for deep sea fishing–here’s why

While deep sea fishing can be a thrillful activity, it also requires proper gear for optimum enjoyment. In this case we’re talking about the proper pair of sunglasses.

Why? Not only will your eyes be bombarded by the blazing sun above, but along with the reflections from the water, you’ll constantly be exposed to ultraviolet light. 

That’s why the best eyewear for deep sea fishing is a pair of polarized sunglasses. Polarization is a coating that reduces glare from reflective surfaces and is ideal for any water activity. 

So how does it work?

Sun rays bounce off surfaces and reflect in multiple directions. Bodies of water also cause considerable glare because of all the surfaces created by moving water. Being out on the water causes distortions of vision and color and blinding flashes of glare.

Standard sunglasses reduce (but don’t completely block) light waves that enter the lens both horizontally and vertically. Polarized lenses, on the other hand, contain molecules that absorb the horizontal light while allowing vertical rays to pass through. In this method, light enters your eyes from only one direction in polarized lenses, effectively eliminating glare.

The effect of polarization is a view of the water surface that is remarkably clear. Since you’re not experiencing glares from reflected light you can actually see through the water’s surface to a certain depth. This ability, coupled with blockage of the overhead sun rays and the screening out of harmful ultraviolet rays, makes polarized lenses the ultimate choice for water sports like deep sea fishing.
