Thill Premium Weighted Floats - 1 in Oval - Slip

Meet the Thill Premium Weighted Floats, designed to adapt from shallow presentations to deeper targets with reliable balance. The 1 in oval Slip model pairs with a variety of jig weights, helping you place your lure precisely while keeping line action visible on the surface. For anglers who value quick setup and confident tracking, these floats offer a thoughtful blend of balance, visibility, and versatility.

Crafted with purpose, each float uses a soft latex tube to securely attach to the line, while a buoyant balsa body rides lower on the shortened float shaft for stable tracking. Thill offers both slip and spring float models, giving you options that fit different float fishing styles and conditions. The design supports easy tuning for your jig weight and water depth, so you can adapt your rig as conditions shift without losing control of the presentation.

Key design and practical benefits

• Soft latex tubing provides a secure yet gentle line connection, reducing wear and snag risk.
• Buoyant balsa body keeps the float visible and balanced, with the shaft kept shorter for improved stability.
• Available in both slip and spring float variants to suit different fishing applications.
• Several sizes available to balance with the weight of your jig for a tuned presentation.

Visibility, balance, and real‑world use

• Vibrant orange color enhances visibility in sunlit or overcast conditions, helping you spot takes quickly.
• The combination of buoyancy and lower ride helps maintain a steady, controlled drift in varied waters.
• Fixed float in shallow zones is simple to deploy, while a float stop lets you slide the float to deeper targets when needed.

In the box, you receive a compact unit designed for easy transport and quick field setup. The item package dimensions are 6.77L x 2.87W x 1.5H inches, and the package weight is 0.03 pounds, reflecting a lightweight, portable option for tackle boxes and packs. The design supports a single unit per package and is categorized as a fishing weight, aligning with Thill’s focus on dependable float fishing gear.

Choosing between Slip and Spring models comes down to how you prefer line movement and bite indication. Slip floats glide with the retrieve to present the lure naturally, while spring floats lock the line more firmly, offering steadier presentations in choppy or windy conditions. Regardless of model, the Premium Weighted Floats are engineered to complement your jig weight and water depth, helping you stay focused on line cues and water movement rather than gear quirks.

Tips for best results: pair these floats with a suitable rod, reel, and line setup, and let the vivid orange float be your first cue in dim light or glare. While outcomes depend on many factors, a well-balanced rig with a clearly visible float can improve your confidence and consistency on the water.
