Found a pond off the beaten path a couple weeks ago while out on a hike with a friend, we seen a few gills swimming around, we assume there might be bass in there but not sure, we are going to give it a try here shortly and it got me to thinking...what would be the best lure/lures to use to try and smoke these guys out(if there is any in there) First thing that popped in my mind was a wacky rig or spinner bait but I am open to any and all suggestions. Thanks guys
As far as spinnerbaits go for a pond, I've always had good success with a 1/6 oz. safety pin style spinnerbait like the mini Bushwacker. I'll usually use a 3" twister tail grub as a trailer.
for pond fishing I've found that just a curly tailed purple worm rigged on a worm hook with no weight will catch a ton of pond bass. just cast out let it sink a couple of feet and do a slow retrieve.

I always through some spinner baits white/chartreuse, I also like to throw topwater frogs.
