Oh, be sure to get sunglasses for the both of you and never cast
a fly line with a hook attached without wearing them.

Excellent advice, but be sure to get *polaroids*. You can see *into*
the water much better.

Umm... "polarized" me thinks.

Vince is showing his age. The first polarized sunglasses on
the mass market were called polaroids.


Shows you what I know, eh?

So it's like calling

a copy machine the Xerox machine or paper tissue a Kleenex.
Folks know what you mean.


I get Kleenex, Xerox, Jell-O, and most others, but had no idea that the
first polarized glasses were made by Polaroid. Figured it was a typo. Like I
said, shows you what I know.

...who is perhaps showing his own age?

Ray Ban introduced the first polarized sunglasses in 1936. The Polaroid
Corporation wasn't founded until 1937.
