Young Fisherman Please Read
my advice take it or leave it...drop the trying to be a pro thing for now and concentrate on your education because free baits and discounts dont pay the bills and since you are marketing their product and basically doing their work for them you arent getting anything for free you are actually getting under paid i dont care to be a pro cause its a long lonely trip to the top and an uncertain one especially when your sponsors are paying for everything...you could lose them in a heart beat (dont think you cant because business is business) and then you will have nothing my plan is to get paid now so i can retire early and fish everyday without worrying...also personally i didnt go to college and im not sure about other countries but in the US you dont need a degree to be a successful business owner i have to tell you to get an education and all because thats the norm and your mom would probably kill me if i told you not to lol...but look carefully at all of your options and best of luck to you

What Exactly Is "open Water"
open water to me is the fish can go where ever it wants but has nothing to tangle you up on or cut you off or hide around etc

Costa Sunglasses
yeap always use glasses for not only protection from the sun and to see through the water...but alwayssssssssss to keep that exact thing from ever happening that is why i always use glasses when im fishing the other stuff is just a bonus scratch resistance is pretty good i dont take such good care of mine and they dont have any scratches but i guess if they do i think costa will fix whatever for like $50? ill have to ask my uncle (he works as a glasses salesman and makes prescription lenses and such so thats where i get mine at wholesale price haha) and costa is also extremely good about their warranty and all too

Costa Sunglasses
i would go with the green mirror...its copper color inside? copper or amber or so and lets you see in low light conditions as well as when its very sunny...i have them and the vermillion color both are good...i have the vermillion in plastic lenses and the green mirror in the 580 glass lense and the glass seems to be a bit more clear but its a bit heavier
