1898

"Respect the spirit of the battle and the value of your adversary”. Off the coast of Southern California lies Catalina Island, the birthplace of Modern Sport Fishing. In 1898 a group of anglers developed new standards for sport fishing that gave the fish a fighting chance. Records were made and broken, and these high standards remain in place today. Inspired by the men and women who not only chase these trophy fish, but also set out to protect them and their habitat.

The 1898 sport fishing glass represents the pinnacle of SALT. Optics innovation. Hand crafted with a lightweight Japanese titanium frame and premium glass lenses designed for exceptional clarity on the water, the 1898 delivers the ultimate in optical performance for spotting fish.

Working closely with highly accomplished anglers we addressed issues with current sport fishing eyewear and ended up with something that is adjustable to improve fit, performs better on water and is so light, you’ll forget you are wearing it.

We’ll be donating $200 from the first 100 pairs sold to the Coastal Conservation Association to aid in their efforts to protect coastal fisheries and public access to fishing. To learn more, visit CCACalifornia.org~
