Fly fishing protective glasses

clownface95 · 2018-05-13 17:05:58

Hi so I bought a new fly rod. It’s a very small rod 5 foot length. Since it’s so short when casting a fly can come very close to your face. Does anyone have recommendations on where I can get protective glasses ?

I got a great pair in Aldi or Lidl for a fiver last week. I should’ve bought 2. Also got a couple of polaroids from the local garage for a tenner. When I eventually sit on them or lose them it ain’t a bother. Worst pair I ever got cost about 60 euro online and never sat right, a real waste of money. Still have them, never wear them. :mad:
