split-shot
Small lead pellet
Split-shot is a small lead weight used in fishing, split down the middle so it can be crimped onto a fishing line to help sink bait or lures to the desired depth: I added a few split-shot above the hook to get the bait down faster.
The split allows attachment without threading the line through.
