Nice idea!
This sounds fun!
We have several barracuda species here in Hawaii and I often see small sizes (3-4") waiting motionless around the boat ramp hoping for mosquito fish and such to show up.
My future needle lures are meant to imitate these guys in hopes of having small jacks go after them.
I'll give it a try...

Just realized
That with Hilo's post, these mini 'cudas have gotten plug builders going from one end of this Country to the other - half a world away.
Yeah it's past my bedtime

Think this would have worked, Vic?
Saw your post this morning, while drinkin' that first cup of java, and thought I'd give it a try. I mean, what the heck, it's just me-n-the-dog home today...
Used a template for a 9 inch needle; turned it offset 1/8 inch; chopped the nose back; weighted it to slow sink level. Body is a hair over 7 inches... with the tail, about 9.25" and 1.7 ounces. Rush job, so it's a little sloppy on the lateral line and the pearl overshot the gray side scales a bit more than I wanted... but it might work if we ever get some sennet swimming through Jersey.
