Welcome to BFT and I hope we can all help you get started. For resources on bass fishing, Bass Master magazine is a great publication to learn the many ways to chase bass.
When I fish a pond that I haven't fished before, I'll put on a watermelon senco. Weightless with a #4 off set hook or wacky rig it with a small circle hook. Fan cast the area in front of me and let the worm do the work as it goes to the bottom. Look for the edges of weeds, stumps,or any structure that makes it different than the rest of the water. You'll have to keep moving till you find fish.
Bass fishing will become addicting.
