today i want fishing in about a 1/2 acre pond and started working a rapala in about 7ft of water on a steady incline and nothing was biting so i tried doing a slow retrieve and this HUGE bass came rite up and just sorta sniffed it and swam away. i spent 2 hours chacing it around that dinky pond and just could not get him to bite. tried just about every type of lure i have and still nothing. got about 6 1lb, so i guess it wasnt all bad.
but does anybody have any advice.

p.s. this is NOT a fish story this sucker had to be every bit of 5lbs
