The pond you described sounds just like the one behind my house! What a blast it is to fish back there when the bass are hitting.
If the water is murky in your pond as it is in mine, color choice is a factor. I have no luck throwing earthy tone senkos unless I just about hit the fish in the head with the lure. I did have good luck with red with red flake and daquiri (light blue) senkos.
Look into some senko style worms for a good place to start. As mentioned, topwater lures will work well at times, too!
