I'm trying to find a good top water frog or any other top water lure to use in small ponds what brands and colors should I get

I use a black Spro popping frog more than any other top water bait.

+ my favorite color is green pumpkin followed by black. The green pumpkin is like a dark translucent green with black flakes and a orange popper surface.

I keep a pretty extensive array of colors ready.  What I try to do is match whats in nature.  Black seems to work well at times, but other then that around where I fish you see browns and yellows quite a bit and those tend to get bites. 

 

That got convaluted  .  Match nature works for me.

Live target, NKVD sexyfrog, that's all I use

X2 for the most part for me.  Black/Brown for low light  and white/yellow for daylight hours. 

Depending on your budget, if you are open to $11 a frog will tell you livetarget frogs they are great. If you are on a budget, booya sells frogs for $6. Others have mentioned other frogs that will suit you just fine. I fish them anytime.  As far as colors, I stick with earth tones.

Scum...Green with black or red flakes.

I'm not going to get into brands and colors, but the topwaters that work in large or small lakes will work in ponds as well, be they large or small. In other words, the full assortment of topwaters, including, buzzbaits, solid and hollow frogs, walking baits, Jitterbugs, poppers and whatever I might've left out.

 

Topwater is my favorite fishing technique and I've caught fish on those lures from waters ranging from 5-acre ponds to 40,000-acre lakes.

I feel like i just answered this in another thread. lol its all good, I like them and the all prduce, depends on what you are catching in the pond, booyah has just released the smaller padcrasher, so they may be good for smaller fish, but i fish them all,
