Laravel 5.2 Try Catch Not Working

I am trying to run this code :

Route::group(["prefix" => "{user}", "middleware" => "web"], function () {
    Route::get("/", function (User $user) {
        try {
            return $user;
        } catch (\Exception $e) {
            echo "ads";
        }
    });
    Route::get("/photos", function (User $user) {
        return $user->albums;
    });
});

So in above code i am using Route Binding when user enter url like this : http://localhost:8000/myusername then it will show that user information but if user will not available i just want to catch exception so that is not working.

I am getting error :

enter image description here

What should be a issue ? Why try catch not working.

The way you are trying will not work. You have to bind, to show Laravel how to query by name, instead of ID.

Add this before your Route::group:

Route::bind('user', function($value)
{
    return User::where('name', $value)->first();
});

You can remove your try/catch. If you want to check if your model has been found, just use like this:

Route::get("/", function ($id) {
    try {
        return User::findOrFail($id);
    } catch(ModelNotFoundException $e) {
        echo "ads"
    }
});
