I sure am glad I have some of these left. Looks like thill does not make this bobber anymore. Been using it for years.

Is that a slip bobber? I have several Thill bobbers. They are all slip bobbers. I really like them.


It's been months since I bought the book, "How To Scam People On Line". It still hasn't arrived yet.

Thill seemed to have changed there lineup recently has a lot of the premium bobbers they don’t make anymore like they used to. Still have a good selection and I use them small little crappie corks for panfish and they do the job

You run your line thru the rubber grommets and lay it upside the bobber, then slip the grommets over the nub ends. The line rest' alongside the body.

I like the https://www.doublextackle.com/A-Just-A-Bubbles/ABM for bluegill fishing. I use the clear ones. The're are many different sizes.

I make most of my own with wine corks and bar stirrer straws. Lot-O-Fun!

I probably have a few of the shy bites somewhere, and I do have at east one A-Just-A-Bubble, which I keep reading about. I often grab a super thin spring bobber to attach quickly, but inevitably I get my line all kinked up by it. On my next trip out, I will try out the Bubble one. I can see how it can be filled and weighted to be barely buoyant and easy to cast.

I need to go fishing!
