Ok its pretty hot here and stuff, water is pretty clear, the bass eat worms, bugs, frogs but there is no other fish.The structure is weeds

Have you tried Texas rigging some 7" plastic worms weightless just outside the weed lines? Use natural looking colors.

Hard to beat a senko type bait wacky rigged or t-rigged.

Well, I suspect there are other fish. Bass need baitfish as forage to survive. Anyhow, I suggest focusing ALL OF YOUR FISHING TIME on just a few lures. I have some specific suggestions in this thread and several other members offer advice:

good Avice RW,, !!

With that said..

if the fish have every thing to reproduce..

they will be there for ,, who knows maybe,,

for ever..

if the pan fish & bass did not reproduce there

then its not the place to fish.

I would spend some time around the pond and just see

what mite be in there.

Only one way to fidn out, fish it, and fish it a lot.

I would also say the best bait for the situation would be a 4" stickbait.

Yeah I'd definetly try a 4-5inch Senko(or a knock off) mainly because its the easiest soft plastic I can think of to fish and it catches fish. Size 2/0 Gamakatsu EWG Hook for 4inch Senko, Size 3/0 Gamakatsu EWG Hook for 5inch.

Another thing I'd try is a Stanley Ribbit or a Zoom Horny Toad (Even though I can never get the Horny Toad to run right it works for others) Rig them with a 4/0 Gamakatsu EWG Hook and just slowly retreive them along the top over lillypads, around weed edges, and over/around stickpiles.

You can also try a Spinnerbait, White/Chartreuse to be specific. Just cast out around structure and give it a steady retreive in.

Last thing I'd recommend is if you know how to fish a Jig, pick a Black/blue or Green/brown Colored jig and rig it with the trailer of your liking and cast it in the thickest stickpiles and through the thickest weeds/pads. That should catch a big boy ;).

Good Luck

95% of my fishing is done in weedy water and I use a wide variety of bait. Basically, I think you can use anything that won't pick up weeds on every cast. If the weeds are submerged, you can use many different lures fishing over the weed tops. If they come to the surface, then a variety of texas-rigged soft plastics and weedless topwaters are good.

It's not pretty hot here.  :'(
