well with the loops on both ends i'ts a in line item .
made of wood to float (pre dating foam ), so it's old . the rounded head and tapered to the end shows that it was used while trolling .
if it's old , must have been used on stainless steel fishing line and it's size meens it was used for big game fish (pre dating mono and other plastic lines ).
big game fish , hey , must have been using a downrigger . the float kept the ssline from sinking and snagging the bottom .
put it all together and you got a o;d inline float for trolling after the big boys !
am i close ?
