Correct way the wood grain should go?

[lazaro]

Hi everyone

I'm making wood lures out of red cedar

While casting one, I hit a metal pole and the lure just broke in half

In that lure, the grains where cut  in diagonal to the lure profile

I'm guessing that I didn't cut the wood grains in the correct direction

Can you please give me any suggestions

My vote would be horizontal, or nose to tail.

Funny thing is that the lure continued performing well, even without the tail part
