Angry Water Pump Removal (HELP)

Ok so I removed the fan shroud, the fan and pulley, the bottom pulley, hoses disconnected, the outer timing belt shield, and have removed 6-7 bolts and I can't get the thing to budge an inch. Am I missing some bolts? How many are there? Where are the hidden ones? Do I need to remove more stuff? Or what size Sledge Hammer should I use? (kidding)
It's a '93 Ford Ranger XLT 2.3L Power steering but no A/C.

Help Please!!!

There are two options. 1-Bigger hammer which will always work, but usually causes more problems. 2-Remove the bolt that you missed. Get a really bright light, use your fingers, find the offending bolt.
