Q:
I like to fish a big pond/ small lake. The max depth is 5-8ft deep. The water is stained. It has alot of weed beds. And alot of bass and panfish. I usually use spinnerbaits for bass, but those havent been working lately. I fish from the shore. What do you guys recommend?

I will agree with pif123 a finesse worm (ie. Senko) rigged either wacky or traditionally usually works pretty good for picky Largemouth. You might also want to try fishing frogs on top of weed/grass mats, or other plastics like lizards or beavers.

A plastic stick bait would be a good choice, too.

Ya, definately soft plastics, and a wacky rig sounds the best to me also. I would go with a chartreuse senko

Small rapala floating jerk baits work great. Try to use bright colors and vary your retrieves.
