Thanks for the help. I'll give it a try this morning.

Define peg please?

I'm still learning about the different techniques and all so bare with me as I try to relay exactly what I have tried. I'm fishing various types of worms ranging from Sink-O's from Bass Pro (weedless on a Gomakatsu EWG 4/0 hook with and without weight), KVD Sexy Frog, and a Texas rig worm with the same Gomakatsu EWG 4/0 hook. I've approached the weeds from my Jon Boat about 10-15 yards away and also tried to fish it from the bank. Each time it seems like it will penetrate the weak spots, but come back to the surface instead of stay under the weeds. (Keep in mind the weak spots are few and far between and not very big). Maybe I could use more weight to "Punch" through? I'm guessing that's what you ment by Punch? lol Im going to look into the Kreature bait mentioned in the reply above. I bought a pack of what I think is a similar bait from Bass Pro just last week. The name escapes me, but it's a flat rubber speckled frog?? I believe that is close to the Kreature bait you mentioned.

On one of my local ponds I fish there is a ring of weedy lillys that are inside the pond edge approximatly 1-4 foot across. It provides plenty of cover for the Bass, but it seems impossible to fish. Frogs have worked in the morning across the top of them but all other attempts to fish it have been futile. Also on the same property, there is another pond that has the same type cover but is spread out alot more covering a good portion of the pond. I've seen these weeds gradually shift from one place to the next covering up my honey hole. Any suggestions on how to fish this stuff or fix it?

How can I find tournaments in my area? There aren't any Lakes or anything close to me really, so all I have to fish are my local ponds. I'm new to Bass fishing but love to compete. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
