Nothing Else Compares
By: Karl Sieve
I spend almost every day outdoors in my career as a park ranger. When I am not working I don't stray too far from the woods and spend free time hunting, fishing and downhill skiing. Backing up into college I wore nothing but oakleys. I was consistently frustrated with the fit, quality, etc.. A fellow waterfowl guide and good friend turned me onto Costas and I never looked back. Recently I glanced out my front window only to discover my two dogs playing tug of war with my 580 wave killers. Both lenses were cracked and the frames were chewed beyond repair. It was a no brainer to order a new pair. Four minutes after I discovered my sunglasses were wrecked I had a new pair coming.
Hey Mr. Bass.....I See You
By: Cletus Buice
This story takes place on my buddy’s 15 acre pond located at his deer camp in Middle Georgia. This pond has been well managed and the bass that swim in these waters are mean and nasty and they have tremendous fight in them. I joke that I think when they stocked this pond they stocked it with 75 pounds of gunpowder as well. They are serious folks! So it’s April and the bass are cruising in the shallows and there is one bait that they will seek out and destroy and that my friends is a white Zoom super fluke. So we are having a blast and we are catching the mess out of 3 and 4 pound bass and the high fives are slapping. I hear an enormous top water explosion behind the boat and it looks like something just got dealt with. Then I see the top fin of a very large bass creep his way up into the shallows and he hugs up next to a stump. With my Costa Man-O-War’s on I can see his every move. He may think he is lurking in stealth mode but I got my eye on him the whole time. The polarized lens can not be defeated and I fling my white fluke over to the stump and offer it up. It didn’t take but one twitch of the fluke and that bass hammered it. I set the hook with a vengeance and the bass tried to wrap me around the stump but I turned him and even though he made some hard pulls under the boat, I played him out and lipped this beautiful largemouth. It was a solid 5-pound chunk and after a picture was taken I dropped him back in the drink to fight another day. Thank you Costa Del Mar Man-O-Wars for being my eyeballs that day and helping me land that warrior of a bass!
Stay Bassy My Friends!

Busy In Bimini

This was an abstract picture taken while deep dropping south of Bimini that I thought I should share on here. Couldn't get through a day on the water without my Costas.
