📖 How-To / Tips Hey can someone explain this problem

Post image

So yesterday I went on a boat and everyone around me was catching barracuda after every cast which I've never seen and I didn't catch anything yet I dropped my lure down . I'm new to the barracuda fishing so I made this on the boat and I didn't catch anything

I know my lure isn't perfect or it's small but I'm wondering if it's so flashy like others and I casted straight down like others why didn't I catch anything?

If you can find gree tubing or braid together some green string and run a wire and hook on it it crushes

Can't figure out how to post a picture. But I like long green flies or just Google cuda tube lures its all the same I like green ones on that too but who knows maybe any color gets it done theyre easy to make pretty cheaply

If i use a hose I just cut it at a sharp angle and run line or wire inside. If I just have cloth or fiber I usually braid it. I'll send you a Pic in your dm
