Pure ART!

..but a question...how they swim? I've seen a few different flappys and the ones that have the eye up top like a darter I can see dig but how do these swim? Others have the split/ sloped nose. I can see those imparting action like a swim plate.
These seem to have a Pikie type head yet the eye is front and center. Whats the objective to a true Flaptail?
I'd like to try one but the variations have me baffled!
These "look" like they might slowly skim the surface like a boat laying down a wake and some slish spash from the tail...which is never a bad thing.
Someone break down the flaptail mystery for me?!
