Captain Brandon Cyr, a seventh-generation Florida Keys native, embodies the relentless pursuit of the perfect catch. As an expert fly-fishing guide, his life revolves around the water—where precision, clarity, and endurance are crucial.
To meet the demands of his craft, Cyr relies on Costa’s Fly Line, the latest in high-performance fishing eyewear. Designed to withstand harsh elements, Fly Line ensures Cyr stays focused on what he does best—guiding anglers to success while protecting the waters he calls home.
Inspiring the Next Generation of Anglers
Beyond mastering his own fishing techniques, Cyr is dedicated to passing on his knowledge. Whether with his clients or his own children, he instills a deep respect for the ocean and its ecosystems.
“Being a Costa Pro isn’t just about pushing my limits—it’s about inspiring young anglers to respect the ocean, master their craft, and chase their personal bests,” says Cyr. “It’s about protecting our waters and sustaining the guiding industry for future generations.”
Costa Fly Line: Designed for Ultimate Performance
Inspired by Cyr’s commitment to excellence, Costa introduces Fly Line, a performance-driven frame designed for serious anglers. With an 8-base wrap, it provides full coverage and protection from the sun and wind. Double-injected Hydrolite™ nose pads and retainer-ready temple tips ensure a secure, all-day fit, allowing anglers to stay locked in on their next big catch.
The Fly Line features Costa’s signature 580® lens technology, delivering unparalleled color contrast and clarity. Now available in Rose 580G, this lens enhances underwater details, joining the Rose Gradient and Rose-Based Gold Mirror options in Costa’s premium lens lineup. With 100% polarization, the Fly Line reduces glare while offering a sleek, modern look.
A Commitment to Conservation
As a passionate advocate for marine conservation, Cyr plays an active role in preserving Florida’s fisheries. He proudly supports the Bonefish & Tarpon Trust (BTT) and serves as Vice President of the Board of Directors for the Lower Keys Guides Association (LKGA), working to protect the unique marine habitats of the Florida Keys.
Costa has been a long-standing supporter of BTT and its Project Permit initiative, a decade-long conservation effort in collaboration with LKGA. Cyr, who launched his guiding career through a local scholarship, now gives back by mentoring aspiring fishing guides through a partnership with LKGA and Costa.
Costa continues to support grassroots conservation efforts in the Florida Keys, ensuring the preservation of the sport and the environment for future generations.
Some Fly Line fun facts for you –
- Starting MSRP is $154, giving price conscious consumers a solid performance frame option, without sacrificing technical benefits.
- It’s available in Costa’s new 580G Rose Lens. Very similar in function to Costa’s 580G Gold Mirror Lens, but a different aesthetic in removing the gold mirror.
- Did you know rose-tinted lenses can have a naturally soothing effect, especially for those sensitive to light? By filtering wavelengths that cause visual stress—sometimes linked to conditions like migraines—they can help promote relaxation and well-being.
- 2025 new releases, including Fly Line, now feature 580P lenses made from Bio-Polycarbonate. While you won’t notice a difference in the performance, it’s another step forward in Costa’s journey to protect the places we love most.
- Fly Line comes in 13 frame/lens colors, including a new “Seagrass” colorway inspired by, you guessed it, seagrass.
