    Green mirror is designed for river fishing according to their site so thats what I did. Its an amber lens so it took some getting used to. Awesome glasses.

    I have green mirrors in 400G and 580G. Both are awesome.

    I believe it depends on what base lens color you prefer; blue mirror uses a grey base where green mirror uses a amber base. Personally, I like looking through amber lenses much more than looking through grey lenses so it made my decision easy – green mirror. Hope this helps, good luck.

    Blue Mirror is best for super bright days and ok in overcast/low-light.

    Green Mirror is best in overcast/low-light and good on super bright days, but not as good as Blue Mirror.

    I have green mirror 580g and love them for fishing and driving. Only downside is I CANNOT hit a softball well with them on. Too much high-contrast distortion but that’s great for seeing fish.

    I have a pair of the 580G Blue Mirrors and I love them for all kinds of activities, especially while out on the water. With that being said, I have a coupon for a pair of 50% off a new pair and the green lenses are calling my name
