What To Use For Very Small Bass

[kwilf]

I fish in a pretty small local pond with bass that are no bigger than a foot long or so. I've had some luck with a small 4' lizard and sometimes a spinner bait. I was wondering if there is anything that would put in work back there. The pond isn't very deep and has a lot of leaves and sticks along the bottom so weedless would be nice. any suggestions on what to use and how to use it would be great.

Try using a 4 inch worm wacky rigged, never fails to catch fish. Let it sink to the bottom then reel and let it sink, repeat. You will catch some fish

4" senko, rooster tail.

X2 on Roostertail

2-3" curly tail grubs....It'll catch just about everything in that pond...

T-rig it with a 1/0 hook or a small straight shank light wire hook(what I use).T-rig is about as weedless as you're gonna get.

Try a storm hopper popper. It's a small topwater popper that has caught a lot of bass for me.

Slender 3" grubs on an 1/8 oz jighead, like the Berkley Powerbait Walleye grub.

Bettle Spin

X2, I've caught 3 five pounders on a beetle spin as well.

I use a t-rigged 3" grub around my little pond!

Another vote for a beetle spin or a inline spinner(panther martin, rooster tail, mepps.....)

I have had a lot of success drop shotting those 3 or 4 inch Creme Trout worms they sell at Wal Mart. They are only a buck for a pack of four. Wacky rig them on a drop shot and you'll slay those dinks.

Marabou Crappie Jig. Cast it out, yo-yo swim back it...Game on!

A small original floating rapala twiched along will get bit as well.
