That bass gotta be full of sunnies & bluegills. That's the only thing he'll go after and nothing else.

Might not be feeding, just guarding the nest full of eggs right now.

keep in mind, lines with no stretch like braid, will tear a bigger hook hole in the fish's mouth if you pull too hard or have a rod that is stiff. once the hook hole gets ripped bigger it can shake it off easier.

I hooked em with my flouro twice. I don't think they spawned yet haven't seen any beds and it's almost crystal clear. I've never had such an issue like this its really frustrating. It's funny though there's a bunch of sunnies I guess non go as close I went.

Set your drag properly, sounds like it's too tight. If the fish wants to run, let it run.
