sunglasses are not an absolute must but they do help to put the lure where you need it when targeting cover. right now fish aren't really relating to anything except structure on the bottom which means unless you are feeling it with your rod tip and lure your not "seeing" it per se.

this past weekend I only got out once. ended up hooking a 2.5 lbr on a jig. water was cooler then the weekend before. But was a lot clearer. looking forward to warmer days to bring the water temp to the high 40's

Water is dangerously clear and getting even within casting distance of these fish was difficult. I could easily see 6ft down with polarized sunglasses sat in the sun and pick out bass easily. Right now the water is coming up and getting muddy. Should help stain the water a bit and make it easier to catch a couple more at a shot.
