Once the lure hits the water the feathers should start floating, at least I would think so.

Frenzy Tackle Makes a GREAT castable, floating, realistic flying fish. The tuna here sure do love them, and on my last trip they accounted for 9 of the 13 tuna my Dad and I caught (not bad considering the boat with 26 people only caught 30 total). It pays to have the right bait. Can be bought rigged with a single BIG treble or unrigged. I modify mine by trimming the width of the wings down (less plastic to interfere with hookset) and replace the trebles with 6/0 and 7/0 tuna tamer ringed hooks.

I get mine from FTU and http://www.affordablefishing.com/

I think a keeled downeaster would be a better tool for the job
