Floyd's Sizzler

Buddy of mine picked up a nice Floyd Roman Sizzler, interesting plug and I've got to say a butt ugly one too! Any idea of what type of swimming action these had? From the way it is weighted it looks like it would have a topwater darting action. Peter, ever swim one of your's?? May just have to take this one for a swim.
I'll post the dimension for it in a day or two.

Looks good, did you use a tailweight or just one behind the rear hook? Go take it for a swim and let us know how it swims. Still have not got out to test the one my buddy did.

I loaded it up to use in the canal... It has a 1 OZ tail weight and the belly weight as well. Floyd made a version like this for the canal... I will add a small flag in the tail
