Ron,
You can have bass in a pond that size, but you have to keep after it. 2-3 brushpiles, consistent light feeding, and harvest of excess small LMB are three things you should do.
It sounds like you are going to stock the fatheads, bluegill and catfish first, as most suggest. That's great. This fall, stock 15-20 6" LMB and let them do their thing for a couple of years. After that, be sure and harvest 20-30 bass <12" every year to keep competition for resources to a minimum.
You won't have trophy bass, but you will have bass.
Oh, one other thing. Make sure your pond holds water. In general if you are located very far west of I-35 in Central Texas, that can be iffy.
