Eye Wear and Sunglasses for Fishing
Julbo sunglasses offer solar protection and visual acuity while fishing—all so important to having a good day on the water.
At the ocean, lake or stream, these sunglasses are recommended for fishing because they cut out the glare that can seriously hinder the angler.
As its name implies, Julbo's Octopus® lens was made for a watery environment. The water-shedding hydrophobic coating on the sunglasses is ideal for water sports such as fly fishing, deep sea fishing and lake fishing. Photochromic and polarizing, the Octopus® lens darkens and lightens according to the intensity of the light, provides anti-dazzle protection and high-definition vision.
Some Julbo models feature sideshields, which are helpful in the brightest conditions when the harsh sun reflects off the water. The new Bivouak are the world's first sunglasses with magnetic protective shields. For fishing, add the sideshields to increase protection against intense light reflection, or remove them for regular use.
Why athletes recommend these Julbo sunglasses for fishing:
- The Octopus® photochromic lens darkens or lightens depending on the light’s intensity
- The sunglasses have a wrap-around style and wide temples to maximize protection
- Octopus lenses are water-repellent, making water slide off the lens and preventing water molecules from forming hydrogen bonds
- Several sunglasses offer an optional optical clip, enabling prescription lens wearers to take full advantage of the Julbo's lens technology
- Sideshields and elastomer shock absorbers at sides offer added comfort and performance

In the Press
Boating Life featured the Sail sunglasses, saying, "The photochromic lens actually changes depending on the amount of light around — it even repels water."
Outside magazine's Buyers Guide touted the Sail: "Not only did the Octopus lens stay streak-free on a drenching Class IV rapid; it actually repelled water."
