Any advice on a Cooper or other low light lens for sighting Red's and Spec's on the flats?

I have some Maui Jim's in Neutral Grey. In the morning, at dusk and during clould cover I cannot see very well with the Grey lens. Would like to spend $50 vs $150 plus. I tried some Action Optics Copper lenses yesterday at Bass Pro but they did not work any better than the Maui's in grey lens.

Thanks...

I have some Costa del Mars in amber but I can really see the fish better in some Academy $14.99 glasses in vermillion. I think it depends on your eye color. Try the different colors and one will be better than the others. For low light, either amber or vermillion seem to be best imo.

I keep a pair of the yellow lens glasses in the boat for early / late running they enhance the light can't stand them in the daylight. Sorry don't really know what to call them, to me they are "shooters glasses" as in gun range is where I got them when I left mine at home one day.

i have a pair of Costa's in the Green Mirror/amber and a pair in the vermillion. I can see potholes and fish alot better with the vermillion and can see alot better during low light with the vermillion. This may be due to the Green Mirror darkening up the Ambers. You will notice the difference in the cheaper/expensive sunglasses after being on the water all day or at least that is when I noticed..... your eyes are more relaxed and not as stressed..get the best pair you can afford in my opinion

Green mirror for afternoon, but have amber/yellow/sunrise for early and late. Trust me, if you spend any amount of time on the water you will be able to tell that good lenses are worth the money you spend on them. Watch ebay for Costas.
