I have a similar situation in the pond in my front yard. Yes a Texas rig is probably better. A Drop Shot is probably best. But if your a die hard jig guy like me you try to find way's to make jigs work in any situation.
So in that respect I agree with smalljaw67. I have tried many finesse jigs in my pond. Strike Kings Bittsy Flip is good. I have had Excellent results with the Stanley Finesse Jig. Also Stand-Up Heads either with a silicone skirt or
tied with bucktail. Hope this helps
