I find the "quill" floats best if you are using smaller jigs. The lightest tap gets action.

All you of guys who like the Thill floats, are we talking slip floats? I have bought tons of thill over the years and always end up with a groove in the top, making the floats worthless, usually happens in one trip. I can't find a great slip float, I have used the Thill pro series with the metal ring at the top, but those floats are very hard to get the right weight to set them up right. I go with the cheap Wal Mart 3 for a dollar floats. I have tried just about everything out there, and these hold up the best for me!

I agree with Locator79, I had the same issue. I stumbled on a good slip bobber two years ago. They are made from a guy in MI. He calls them ESB-everlasting slip bobber!
I use the two smallest he offers, in a florescent green. They are what he claims them to be. I don't know the fella, or his name, but there co. is HL-OUTDOORS.
