slider

slider
a means of fishing with a float in deep water as it is difficult to cast out a float with a line below it longer than the fishing rod. The float has a large eye at the bottom and slides readily along the line until it is halted by a stop knot or rubber stopper set where the float will operate at the required depth. When casting, the float is down near the hook and slides up the line once in the water. The float may have a hole through its middle for the line to run freely through. Known as slip bobber or sliding float rig in North America
