waggler

Fishing float type

A waggler is something that wags—typically a tail, finger, or tongue.

The word often appears in compounds: a tail-waggler is a friendly dog, a chin-waggler is someone who talks too much.

In fishing, a waggler is a type of float attached at only the bottom end, allowing it to waggle freely in the water.
