Cifuentes Spots 2nd Bassmaster Elite Series Trophy with Fin-Nor Eyewear

Fin-Nor pro Joey Cifuentes earned a win on Lake St. Clair: his second in the Elite Series this year during his rookie season.

COLUMBIA, S.C. (August 1, 2023) –After an action-packed four days at Lake St. Clair, Joey Cifuentes’ total of 91 pounds, 8 ounces proved to be the $100,000 prize winner. But it wasn’t until the final day of action when Cifuentes took over the top spot, totaling a day-four bag of 23 pounds, 13 ounces amongst a very competitive field. The win marks his second in the Bassmaster Elite Series this year, a major milestone for his rookie year.

Joey Cifuentes caught most of the bass near tall cabbage weeds, so it was crucial for him to spot the vegetation and fish below the surface. To aid him in this task, he relied on the Fin-Nor Flybridge glasses with a green mirror.

The lenses enhanced primary colors without any kind of distortion and enabled the two-time champion to literally spot the next bite. Built from lightweight materials, the Fin-Nor frames provided Cifuentes with all-day comfort with adjustable nose pads, rubber temple tips and integrated spring hinges, allowing him to spend less time thinking about his eyewear and more time focused on the task at hand.

“The Flybridge sunglasses really helped keep me locked-in over the course of the tournament,” Cifuentes said. “For the long days I had on the water, they were lightweight and my green-mirrored copper lenses eliminated any kind of eye fatigue I might have had.

The glasses feature Fin-Nor’s cutting edge Lateral Line lens technology, which gives anglers the advantage by cutting down on glare and providing optimal visibility for what’s beneath the surface. An oleophobic/hydrophobic top and bottom coat help reduce the effects of water spray, smudges, and scratches all while the lenses work to fully protect your eyes.

The Fin-Nor polarized polycarbonate lenses that guided Cifuentes to victory were proven to be 2X more scratch-resistant than the closest competitor based on the Bayer (Alundum 10-SQ) scratch resistance test by Colts Laboratories, providing Cifuentes maximum protection while providing him with the clearest picture of his surroundings.
