Costa Polarisationsbrille Santiago Net Black (Green Mirror 580G)
Costa polarizing glasses have been highly appreciated for many years, not only by professional guides. The brilliance and imaging performance of these patented lenses has found many fans worldwide in fresh and salt water and the large selection of frames and tints offers the right model for every fly fisherman!
The Costa Santiago Net polarized glasses are excellent glasses for fishing thanks to their wider frame and side protective caps, which reduce glare from the sun and reduce the amount of disturbing sunlight that hits the eye. The result is a better view of the water and the fish. In addition, these polarized glasses are made from 97% recycled fishing nets, making them highly sustainable. Other features of the Pargo Net are the rubberized parts of the glasses, such as in the nose area, but also on the temples, which are made of Hydrolite rubber. They prevent the glasses from slipping on your head, whether you are looking down from a bridge or on a wild boat trip, the Santiago always sits securely on your head.
Green Mirror:
As with all Costa lenses, the polarization effect of this tint is impressive! The green mirrored glass is an all-rounder for saltwater and excellent for sight fishing when it comes to spotting bonefish, permit and co. on the flats early. The biggest advantage of this tint is that contrasts are noticeably enhanced, which not only helps you spot the bright fish on the bright bottom, but also makes it easier to spot structure. For domestic fishing, this tint is great on the coast for sea trout as well as on lakes for pike and other predators. Overall, slightly brighter than the 'Blue Mirror' lenses also recommended for saltwater.
