Im not much of a trout fisherman but i found a pond last weekend that was full of 16-20" trout. They were hanging out about 6 feet from shore right near the surface. I was so sure they would be easy to catch. I tried yesterday and couldnt get a bite. I tried a bunch of different lures, and even tried a night crawler with a small hook and no weight. They would follow the worm to the bottom, give it a smell and slowly swim away. I got so damn frustrated. But i think i got the small pond grand slam. 1 bass, 5 perch, 2 crappie, 1 pickerel and a bunch of bluegills.

Everything is better on the rocks.
