Sunglasses not only help anglers see fish in the water, but they protect our eyes from the damaging ultraviolet rays of the sun. At the ICAST fishing tackle trade show, companies from all over the United States display their new frames and lenses for worldwide buyers and media. Here's a selection of new sunglasses you should soon see on store shelves.
Berkley's new Polarized Lenses are an economical option for anglers seeking the visual clarity that polarization provides. Frame sizes vary from medium to extra-large, to fit any size angler.
Price: Up to $25
Costa's new OCEARCH collection of sunglasses features new frames, colors and designs inspired by the sharks the OCEARCH team tags and studies. Purchases help fund research expeditions aboard the organization's vessel.
