My friend and I went detecting yesterday in South Florida. I was out up to my neck when I saw my friend trying to get out of the water. At first I thought there was a shark or that he had been bitten by one. Well it turns out that a barracuda attacked and bit his coil. We believe that it was the yellow on the coil that made him go for it. Not only did the barracuda go for it he wouldn't let it go. He continued to pursue the coil until my friend exited the water. After that a swimmer had the same experience with the cuda who probably was attracted to his silver chain. I was wondering if anyone else has experienced this?

Had one hit my coil hard in the Bahamas swinging that coil over the sugar sand , I think that coil looks like a ray being round and fluffing up the sand, looks like a easy meal oh ya I jumped
