What should I be throwing for LM in a neighborhood pond right now? Not a big bass fisherman but trying to get some bites for my daughter. Forgive me for my ignorance. Just need some advice for a novice.thanks.

I'm having luck throwing Texas rigged creature baits. The slower the retrieve, the better.

It all depends on the pond too. I was throwing a cheap black and blue spinner in a pond and was pulling tons of fish. Its only 12 feet deep at its max. I will say Im going to be throwing Texas rigged craw when I go back in a few weeks.

I fish primarily ponds. I always have the following tied on.
H&H spinner.
Senko with a 1/4 oz weight, retrieve slow with pauses
Zoom super fluke, sometimes weightless, sometimes with weighted hook
Weightless soft plastic frog, various retrieve methods.
Hollow body Spro frog. I tend to catch more with poppers
Its still a little early for the frogs. Had success yesterday with senko and h&h
