Apparently full of catfish, trout and Bass. But has heavy vegetation about 1ft down under the surface. Mostly aiming for bass. I see tiny fish at the surface and I believe I saw a large carp out in the middle. I tried a cricket crank and Texas rig senko without much luck.
Thanks!

That is one harsh fishing environment. I bitch about the vegetation on my pond and it’s not nearly this bad. My first suggestion would have been a weedless Senko. I’m not sure what else would work being pulled through the weeds. I’d be inclined to stay on top first. I’ve just gotten into top water fishing so I’m gonna try some frogs before I go too far down the top water rabbit hole.
Weightless fluke. I think natural colors will do good there since the water is pretty clear. Try to cast in any pockets with less vegetation.
Top water frog all day
For carp go for a zig rig or chod rig, for catfish use a bobber and for trout try some dry flies. I. Terms of bass I think everybody answered
You’re unlikely to get the carp to ‘chase’ so to speak. If you want to catch the carp, use lord still fishing/bait tactics. For bass…. Sight fish them, with the water being that clear. If you aren’t seeing them they probably aren’t there with water that clear and vegetation that thick. Not like they’re hiding between weeds.
Top water pop-r, buzz bait, choppo, frog.
