A Legacy of Quality and Reliability

Back in 1960, when Bruce Thill shaped his first bobber in a small Wisconsin workshop, he wasn’t just making fishing gear—he was starting a legacy. With callused hands and an angler’s heart, he created floats that performed like nothing else on the market.

Sixty years later, that same passion flows through every Thill bobber. While the fishing world has changed plenty since those early days, our commitment to quality hasn’t budged an inch. That legendary Shy Bite that grandpa swore by? It still triggers that same excitement when it dips below the surface.

Tested in various conditions and proven effective on the water. From the ice-covered lakes of the Northwoods to the sweltering backwaters of southern bayous, Thill bobbers have faced nature’s toughest challenges and come out winning. We don’t just test our products in laboratories—we put them through real-world fishing scenarios where it counts. That’s why when conditions get tough, serious anglers reach for Thill.

Recognized by anglers for reliability and well-designed construction. Ask around at any fishing dock or bait shop, and you’ll hear the same story: Thill floats just work, time after time. It’s not just talk—it’s the reputation earned through decades of consistent performance. The carefully sealed seams, the perfect balance, the vivid visibility in any light—these details matter to people who live for fishing, and they’re built into every Thill product.

Our design team constantly refines our offerings based on angler feedback and emerging techniques.
