Im sure there has been a thread in this before but what is your favorite go to lure for ponds. This particular one is only 6 to 8 feet deep at most. Mostly bass and a few gills in there. thanks Jason

For small tanks....gimmeeuhh MEPPS spinner in OUGHT, NUMBER 1 OR NUMBER TWO.....with a squirrel tail dressing OR a bit of real earthworm dressing. And make that SILVER or GOLD ....I like silver on sunny days and gold on cloudy days. I don't cotton to the fanciful colors...some folks do.....I don't. The OUGHT size MEPPS silver Aglia is deadly with bits of crappie nibbles on the treble for big bream!  'Specially late, just before darkness sets in. Me 'N Grandson can fill a 5 gallon bucket at Baker Park (Sherman) or Waterloo in Denison. Fast action even past dark but the snakes are really crawling now so we leave while we can see to step where they.........A'INT! 
****Sun sinking low....lines baited.....gentle south breeze blowing...you realize.........I AM! .

Anything Watermelon or Watermelon/Red. Lizard, fluke, baby brush hog, senko, etc. That should do the job. If it doesn't then there are no fish in there!!!

Can't go wrong with a grub. 1"-2" for panfish; 2"-5" for bass. My buddy slays 'em on a zara puppy.

My BEST ever in ponds have been
Buzzbait
ANY green crankbait
Frog
Poppers/Spinnerbaits
Seems to me that a LOT of topwaters work well, because small ponds are not going to be real deep.
