Not much of a pond fisherman so I will probably exhibit my ignorance, but WTH... Here goes.
I would expect that the ponds are shallow and warm pretty quick. I would take a bait that you could cover water with that could be worked slow like a Heavycover Spinnerbait. Also take your favorite plastic incase they want something slow (Senko). Of note, Roger from Arkansas fished a pond there a couple of days ago and threw a swimbait and caught a monster sack. http://www.bbcboards.net...70435
