What type of lure should i use in a very weedy pond, for Largemouth bass?

I go fishing in a very very weedy pond, fishing for largemouth bass. What is the best lure to use if i don't want it to get snagged on a lot of weeds? Yet still catch a lot of bass? P.S. Please look at my other question!

1. weedless jigs, texas rigged worms or brush hogs, spinner baits if the topwater is clean

2. If the pond has frogs, a topwater weedless Frog works very well as do weedless Lizards. Another lure I've been having some real good results with are the baby duckling surface lures too. Not too many people using them due to the high cost and limited use, but they work.

3. Weedless frogs, if there's frogs in your neighborhood/area. Weedless jig, anything weedless will work.

4. Try a weedless trick worm (sherbert colored) by zoom

5. Weedless frogs would be your best bet, regardless if there's frogs in the pond or not.

6. FROG FROg FRog Frog frog.
a weedless floating frog. pre-rigged. all you need is 15 or 20lb line to get the fish out of the weeds.
a strike king "rage tail toad" is also quite good.

7. Weedless frog for me....try this one:

8. You can use a fake frog or a Gulp! texas rig. you could buy a jig with a weed guard and get some rubber legs and slide them up the hook. Floating buzz baits work too. HAPPY FISHING:)
