I am not sure on the specifics behind this but I learned years ago from skiers and snowboarders that Amber colored lenses will cause objects to stand out from their surroundings better. I think this can be an asset in shallow water. I know there is a time and a place for each lens color based on the conditions, I just am not too sure which lens is better at which time.
I would not recommend buying the mossyback Solar Bats. I love my Solar Bats, but when I bought the two tone moss back gradient, they were horrible. I sent them back and had amber lenses put in. Makes a world of difference when fish are on beds.
If you are sight fishing I think you need two colors hiconY and mossback. I love my High Contrast Yellow solar bats they make all colors seem more vibrant, on really really sunny days I have to go to my mossbacks they are a green, they are awesome as well but as far as definition of colors HiconY is the way to go. Lets face it when you are sight fishing you are not really looking for the fish you are looking for a hint of fish the flash of a white underbelly or a bright spot on the bottom the size of a half dollar to give away the location of a hidden bed! If I was told right now I was going to fish a tournament and all I could do was sight fish and I got one pair of glasses only they would most definetely be Solar Bat Cool Eyes with HiConY lenses.
I prefer the solar bat cool eyes and I have the two pairs. I would also not recommend the gradients, I did not like them either, you'd be better off just buying the mossback lense. I am a sight fishing freek and a am animate about my glasses from the frames to the lenses, I have used every make, I have spent up to $300 on glasses yet the more moderately priced solar bats are what I wear beause IMHO they are the best match for me.

I usually like Amber lenses for shallow water and darker lenses for deeper water. You will have to experiment around with these a bit, but I'm sure you'll figure it out. Also, I like amber lenses for cloudy days and darker lenses for sunny days!!!
