sounds like you have either a clogged pilot or main jet.... or the bowl isn't full of fuel. Take the carb off and tip it sideways and make sure fuel comes out of the vent hoses. If that is ok, pull the jets out and make sure they are clean.

Agreed! Pilot jet, or dry carb.

Stuck carb float, dirty pilot jet, filter screen in fuel petcock dirty, stopped up fuel tank or carb vent lines.
Because your plug is wet, it could be that you have flooded the crank cavity with fuel and until that is cleaned out it will not start.
