Use heavy line (heavy as possible so that way you don’t break off in the thick weeds)…. use heavy lines and a good sized sinker with a rubber worm. The sinker helps get through the weeds into the pockets you don’t see. The big bass hang in the nastiest places… places you’d think aren’t fish able.
Other than that, for a small pond use a small spinner bait to replicate bait fish which should be a common sight for bass in a small pond.
Worst comes to worse get some live shiners, they always work on small ponds.
Look for a spinner called the “Midnight Special”. It is a dark colored lure. This is only good at night, but it is amazing. They are about $4 or $5, but fishing them at night is well worth the money.
Also get four or five inch long plastic worms with a curly tail. Get them in dark colors. Also get the hooks for them ( offset widegap hooks).
For bait, try shiners (minnows)
Panther Martin has these lures called WeedWigs that are designed so that they don’t catch weeds and they buzz around and are very appetizing to the bass. I have caught plenty on these. If it is too light to cast add a pork rind.
Try a roboworm they work great in small ponds twitch them throught stumps and around fallen trees you may also want to try a small jig with a crawfish trailer also cast this near fallen trees and over weedbeds spinnerbaits preform well in small ponds also and also shollow crankbaits and frogs may work just work them through brush and weeds
