    X2!!! I only have these in many sizes and they are fantastic! They are durable, do not fade out, have metal insertion points to make it last a LONG time! I haven't had to replace any of mine!

    My personal choice is size 2. It depends on the weight of your rig. I usually use 1/16 oz. jigs.

    Which size Thill is the best for 1/16 oz jigs and minnows? Weighted or non weighted?

    I've been looking for some sort of slip bobber or slip cork or anything that I can easily / quickly put on and take off of my line...never occurred to me to just use a regular bobber using just one eye hook. I have my 12 foot rod and I hate messing with setting it up when I want to slip bobber, vise versa when I want to just jig.

    For the past year this has been my go to slip float rig setups. I prefer the Thill floats or the cigar shaped ones.

    I would also recommend the Thills, but I use nothing but their wagglers for both fixed and slip float fishing.

    I like the Mr. Crappie slip bobbers pretty well. They are really visible and hold up pretty well. Here's the link. Mr. Crappie slip bobber. Also use them with a good bobber stopper. I've caught many crappie with a slip bobber tight against cover.
