I have the 580 blue lenses because that's all they had in the frame style I wanted and they are best suited for really bright conditions (they've been great driving to work on these sunny morinings with snow everywhere).
John has it right on the different colors and applications. If you are on the water on a bluebird day, the blue ones are awesome. If you are out around sunset/sunrise (like I am a lot) you would probably want to go with the browish tints. that said, no matter what color you get these are by far the best glasses I've ever owned. Even though I have the blue, they are still great in lower light conditions because they totally eliminate any glare. I've always worn oakleys and these are a lot better, plus the warrantee covers scratches.

I "had" (until I lost them) a pair of Costa del Mar Liquids....came with three lenses. I liked the Vermillion (probably close to Copper) for low light and the dark grey for bright sun....Its hard to pick just one color.

Three-fourths of the Earth's surface is water, and one-fourth is land. It is quite clear that the good Lord intended us to spend triple the amount of time fishing as taking care of the lawn.
