self depth adjusting waggler

self depth adjusting waggler
a float used in angling that automatically sets itself to the correct depth. It has a two point friction device at the float bottom where the line passes through. When cast out with a slack line the float will rise to the surface, the line can then be tightened until only the desired float tip is showing, and the float will lock as long as the line is tight. Also called ledger float
