Dad, I've swam the O.E. beachmaster Cowboys, my own and others. They all roll. I tried AYC, PINE & cedar. The lead slug 1/2x1/2 weighs appor. 3/4 oz. and it still rolls. It's a large round diameter. Personally when fished close to surface the roll looks like a disoriented bait fish. I would keep the painting simple w/o a black & white 2 tone.
