I bought a pair of Spotters photocromatics a couple months ago & I can not recommend them too highly. I had a mate out with me & he was wearing a pair of good quality polaroid type glasses & all day I was saying look theres a bream there see it theres a couple there go for it & he's going where I can't see a thing I'm not joking they are that good. I have Bolle's , Mako's & Carerras as well & none of them come close to the Spotters for seeing through water. Spend the $250 you won't regret it.

Prescriptions as well

Spot on Ravin

We spoke to the guys not so long ago and they will also do prescription sunnies for those who wish to purchase a pair.

I'm in.

Father Christmas came to the party for me and delivered the Spotters photochromatic bronze. Absolutely fabulous. I've not worn glasses or only crappy ones before and its like chalk and cheese. I've been out before and guys have said "boy did you see that!!" and the answer was no. During the Albany bream comp Geoff Spads, my boater for the 2nd day, was actually giving me instructions as to when bream were near my lure simply because I didnt see them.

The worst I could say is that its taken me a while to adjust to the weight on my face (glass lenses) but even so I wouldnt do without them.

Craigs rating = 5/5.

Jim, I would part with my glasses for the view you have out your front door

The best you could say about mine is that I get a nice view of the front door over the road.

Mirrored lenses reflect more heat ( Infra Red ) So they are Literally Cooler

Cool

I hadn't heard of that before. It is always nice to learn something new.

I have been out of the industry for a few years now and when mirrors first came out it was more of a fashion thing. I am glad to know that the mirror does surve a purpose. I prefer an antireflection coating to a mirror tho. Cos I like to see peoples eyes and the anti reflection coating works really well

Cheers,

Mim

Hmm are these spotters heavier than a pair of normal prescription specs? I've started wearing specs recently and haven't really noticed anything about the weight.

Torvic, the only difference is if you've had plastic lenses only b4. There is a difference in weight there, but I've been pretty impressed with the Spotters weight.

I've got the bronze penetrators as well and after smashing a lense and using elcheapo's again while they got repaired.

(back in my hands in under a week as good as new)

I now consider them to be my most important piece of tackle that must go every time I walk out the door.

Thanks Again
