I lived in a lake (big pond) development. Had a great time fishing for perch and large mouth. Rubber worms, those jitter bugs. I remember my father catching a big bass on a jitter bug when I was about 9 or 10. Getting up early with him, trps to Wawayanda and swartswood. They were the glory days for sure.

I once caught a 21 inch Calico bass on one,that thing was a monster.
I also caught an 18 inch yellow perch on one too.
can't beat them for night topwater action.
