Do Polarized Sunglasses actually help you see fish?

[johnwilliamson]

Even with polarized lenses, if the fish aren’t there you still won’t see them! Lol

[danielallen]

All it does is reduce the amount of glare on the waters surface. Which in return could help you to see fish better. Or anything else you might be looking for.

I use to think the whole "Polarized lenses are a scam" thing till I actually used them. now I dont go fishing without em.

[KurtisMays]

They help you see fish, but not spawn them!

Polarized glasses are a fisherman's best friend.

Polarized sunglasses soothes my eyes especially on bright sunny days. Also prevents irrigating glares

Everyone is talking about seeing fishes under water. But the thing where this glasses really helpful is to help me see the fishing floats so much better than naked eyes.

Worth noting that polarized lenses only make it easier to see past the surface, but not past particulates, so if the water contains lots of microbes or sand etc, they won't help as much.

I've used 4 or 5 different polarised glasses and all it ever seems to do is mark everything darker, like regular sunglasses, and be able to see maybe 10ft from your position into the water.. honestly, I think it's most about experience than it is about the glasses.

If you know anything about fishing you know they help big time

Pretty cool that you can put sunglasses over a GoPro and get the same results….wonder why the lens isn’t already polarized 🤔

[Robertovijfvinkel]

It seems to be dependent on the depth of the water. Perhaps you could try one with more contrast. Of course, it is not possible to see fish in very deep or dark water. It is not a miraculous see-through lens. I can easily demonstrate this.

[bellamichelle]

I wear mine during extreme rain storms. I see soo much better.

[Mihimal]

Polarized glasses are not made to see fish in water; It was just designed to reduce Glare, which might ultimately help

[kaComposer]

They work best against horizontally polarized light, so usually when the sun is lower in the sky and the water reflects the light at a shallow angle.

I've never seen so much bluegill in my life

Here’s some help… it’ll help you see fish when you’re up a bit closer to the water. Try walking along the shore

[duncandonuts]

It will help you see passed the reflections and glare on the surface of the water, but it won't help you see through the muck

[hyperobelisk]

if i buy a polarized black lens, does it have the same effect, or does it need to be a green or blue color allways?

[adhd_with_pennies]

It does work tbh they where good for seeing through water for navy seals
