[font "Poor Richard"][green][size 3][cool]Okay let’s address this subject to those over 40 even if you won’t admit it. For those that haven’t hit this mile stone, you can go back to fishing for now. When one approaches this age you will find [not if] that your eyes have to strain to see the eye of the hook to thread your tippet. I wear a pair of photo gray bi-focal sun glasses when fishing. I also have a pair of polarized clip ons. Unfortunately my bi-focal are strong enough so in [/size][/green][/font][font "Poor Richard"][green][size 3]addition to wearing all that garbage I also use a pair of Orvis full lens magnifier clip on.[/size][/green][/font]
[font "Poor Richard"][green][size 3]I know, I know that all that eye wear is a bit over the top. I’m planning to discuss my options with my optometrist when I see him tomorrow. There are numerous corrective devises available to today’s fisher person. e.g. Flip focal, MagEyes’ Hateyes, Fisherman Eyewear Solar Focus & Polar Focus etc. Some of these items clips to your hat will other to your glasses. Apparently they all have their positive & negative qualities. So what are you using to help see your hook’s eye that keeps getting smaller and smaller? Have you tried more that one brand/type in the past?[/size][/green][/font]
