Serious about fishing, then get serious about Mako sunglasses .

"Whether I'm out on the blue water chasing Marlin, or on the lookout for the magnificent rainbow trout, my Mako polarised sunglasses are an essential piece of my fishing equipment.

Not only is it easier to catch more fish when you can see them better, they also protect my eyes from the sun damage and the harsh conditions. What's more there is a Mako polarised lens solution for every fishing environment. Durable,comfortable and effective.

I've chosen to promote the best. It's only Mako for me."

Polarised sunglasses offer eye protection and make it easier to see the fish in the water.

The eye protection takes on two forms - the physical protection from getting a hook or lure in the eye, but most importantly by reducing the glare coming off the water which enables you to see through the water to where the fish are.

Mako sunglasses offer a polarised superior lens system which provides you with exceptional performance for all types of fishing. The lens system is designed to provide you with superb high quality contrast resolution and clear precise vision under a wide range of difficult lighting conditions.

Lenses are available in glass, polycarbonate and a new material - NXT ®

But what do anglers do when they need polarisation to see in the water, but the sun has gone behind the clouds?

Mako Glass Polarised Photochromatic lenses or Mako NXT ® Polar Varia ® Photochromatic Lenses are the answer. This lens changes shade to adjust to the level of light. The benefit of polarised photochromatic lenses is sharp, clear, distortion free images especially in changing conditions like clouds, rain, haze, dawn and dusk.

Lens Colour choice

In many respects choosing the right lens colour for the type of fishing you will be doing is critical.

•  Grey/smoke lens that is neutral and offers contrast with minimised colour distortion. This is the only tint that doesn't affect colour. Good for sunny and bright days including off shore fishing. Allows excellent vision in deep water.

•  Brown lens that increases the contrast and is suitable for hazy, cloudy and rainy conditions including freshwater fishing. This brown polarised glass lens increases contrast, is chemically toughened, durable, and has high scratch resistance. Recommended for hazy overcast conditions and freshwater fishing

•  Copper A high contrast tint which absorbs blue light which in turn enhances contrast making it good for sight fishing.Also recommended for saltwater flats fishing. A very good all-round tint.

•  Rose lens offer good contrast for object viewed against blue or green backgrounds and low light conditions.

Mirror finishes

Mirror coatings reflect the light rays that are emitted from surfaces such as water hence making the lens darker than an average non mirrored lens.

Frame comfort

Whilst the lens choice is paramount to your selection of sunglass, the frame must be comfortable, fit well and be durable. Frames should be as unobtrusive as possible with minimum blind spots. Mako offers a great range of models and material types to choose from .including Monel metal which is highly resistant to corrosion from saltwater, injected plastic polymide material which is durable, lightweight and flexible as well as having low allergy properties and Grilamid a thermoplastic material which is extremely strong , almost unbreakable, very light weight and flexible

 

So where do you go from here?
