What are good baits or lures to fish a pond with a fountain in the middle. What should I look for? And what lures do I use? 

Make a wish maybe ?

Ha Ha, if there's fish in it, fish it like any pond.

Would a weightless Texas rig work? 

The fountain is adding oxygen to the water. I’d be casting near as I could around the fountain. Throw whatever ever baits you have.

^ Scott's got the right of it - we got two ponds in the area that have fountains...best producing parts of those ponds are close to the fountain. And yes, normal baits for what you're targeting are the best.

That’s funny, we have a fountain in our pond and I hardly ever catch anything near the fountain. Maybe I’m fishing it wrong… but we always do much better around the edges of the pond. 
 

I’ll have to try throwing some t-rigs out there again though, because you guys said so haha. 

@Thefishingnoobie1987 A weightless 5” Senko or Zoom Trick TR would fit the bill there. Heck, almost any weightless soft plastic. 

 When casting near the pump head look for the rope or line that secures it to the bank for maintenance. I have snagged a few & it's a pain when you do.       

What he said. Stay away from the pump, piping and anchor rope(s). Pond owners do not take kindly to hooks in pump lines. Now that fountain is either floating or attached to a small concrete island. If it’s floating, treat the spray area and base like overhead cover. I actually love OG Rapalas twitched through the spray pattern. If it’s attached to an island, fish it like a hump or vertical cover. I like jigs or t-rigs at the base and out to the spray  line. Ymmv

My best advice is forget the fountain even exists, and then just fish it like any other lake based on weather and water conditions, along with cover types. I’ve rarely done good off the fountains themselves when they can be reached, and the few times I caught some was when the fountain was off, or the whole thing was found in shallow water in the back of a canal. I have found them suspended around the cables at times, but hooking and losing baits in them isn’t worth the effort most times.
 

Typically there are 3 “cables” or lines you have to be aware of. One is the electrical running out to the fountain, and the other two are wire or rope cables used to secure the fountain head in place, often directly opposite each other. Even if you don’t fish the fountain, you don’t want to snag these just fishing down the shoreline, as all three will run clear to the bank.

when i fish urban ponds...i lean towards topwaters.  i hate hooking shopping carts and boots.

Boot puts up a pretty good fight, dives to the bottom when you give it slack 

My son lives on a lake with "bubblers" in the shallow bays. The bubblers are actually there to help prevent algae forming in the stagnant shallow water. The additional oxygen is the medium used to fight the algae blooms. I throw the same baits there as I do anywhere else. Jigs and worms.
