Anybody have any tips for me on catching largemouth bass? I know for a fact they are in my pond. The water has maybe a foot of visibility, at least on the shore. I've seen them hit them top and I've heard they'll strike a senko, but I've had no luck. I've tried texas rigs, wacky worms, a top water walker, a frog, and buzz bait and I've not even had a strike in the 7 days I've been out fishing there. What am I doing wrong??

The bass might be tricky if the pond's pressured; I fish a local pond that gets busy. My go-to usually alternates a ned rig and a shallow crankbait in craw colors.

What food source is in the pond for the Bass? Figure out what they are already eating and do the best you can imitating that.
