    Default Fishing floats/bobbers


    Does anyone know of a source for good quality, custom made cork or balsa wood floats?

    Bass Pro and Cabela's carry the Thill floats, which are balsa.

    The Thill brand floats have always been my favorite. They have a wide variety of styles from which to choose.

    I use the Thill balsa floats. The floats are modified and balanced for the size jig I am using. This system works well for the detection of up biting fish.

    Bass Pro Shop is 22 miles from me. I may not use a float often, but when I do I prefer "Dos Thill"
