Oceanside, CA – Hobie® Eyewear is proud to highlight the trust and reliance that professional angler Carl Jocumsen places in their top-of-the-line sunglasses. Utilizing their premium polarized lenses, Jocumsen experiences superior visibility and performance, crucial for excelling in sight fishing. The innovative Floating Collection ensures he never loses his essential gear, while the affordability and high-quality performance of Hobie® Eyewear provide the comfort and eye protection necessary for competing at the highest level.

Carl Jocumsen, renowned for his expertise in sight fishing, relies on Hobie® Eyewear’s premium polarized lenses to excel in his sport. Jocumsen highlights the critical role of lens color in his success: “One of the biggest advantages when it comes to sight fishing is lens color. We have one called the Sightmaster lens. It’s a bright yellow lens that just makes everything glow. It makes the light spots, the bass, and everything pop, and when it comes to competing, you need that lens to see fish. It’s one of the most important lenses.”

Hobie® Eyewear’s Floating Collection ensures that losing vital equipment is a thing of the past. Jocumsen explains the practicality of these innovative sunglasses: “Everyone you ask, when you spend enough time on the water, you’re going to lose a pair of sunglasses. Well, if you have floating sunglasses, you can just turn around and pick them up. When you invest your money into a good pair of sunglasses, and you know you’re on the water and you put them on your hat, they’re on the boat, and they fall off, and you pick them up, putting your money into a floating pair, spending that amount of time on the water, it’s going to pay back.”

In addition to performance and practicality, Hobie® Eyewear stands out for its value and affordability. Jocumsen emphasizes, “If you want to fish at the highest level, if you want just to go fishing, if you just love fun fishing, they’re affordable, but they feel like the most expensive pair of glasses you can get. At the pinnacle of bass fishing, I’m still wearing them. I love them, and they’re a huge advantage to me. They’ll help you catch fish, be comfortable on the water, and protect your eyes.”
