Anyone out there have a pair of Green Mirror Costa Del Mar sunglasses? If so, what's your opinion?

sandman from Gulf of Mexico, TEXAS says Green costas
I mainly fish the Texas gulf coast and have a pair of the greens and a pair of the blues. Greens have an amber lens and the blues have a grey lens. Both are great but the amber is better in lower light conditions, cloudy, early morn, late eve, etc... and they still work when it's bright and sunny. I think that the grey works a little better when it's really, really bright out. To me, the greens are probably the better all-around fishing lens and the blues are better for driving. I prefer the Eliminators as they block nearly all of the extraneous light out.

Last week I was able to spot a waterspout about 3 minutes before the others wearing gray and mirror blue lenses - just sharpens the contrast - used to be a big fan of H2Optix - but the Costas are far far superior - I know they're high but worth it

They also make the Magellan brand Academy sells and recently Academy started selling a green mirror, glass Magellan pair. Point is the lens looks exactly like the Costa's sitting next to it. So, if you want to save some money...
