Early when the water is cold trout are lethargic and eating worms and shrimp, I like a Mann's strawberry jelly worm or a small twister tail grub clear smoke or amber with some flakes fished on a leadhead. Keep the jig as small as possible and fish it slow.
After the water warms above 60 any of the soft plastic fishies ie. storm shads or fin-s, purple or pink, sometimes chartreuse or white. Or especially at night a 52M Mirrolure Purple Demon. A rattletrap will work too. Let it sink to the bottom and rip it in short quick lifts, letting it sink back to the bottom between each rip. A bucktail or a sting silver both with a squid strip attached and jigged off the bottom.
While you're fishing bigger plugs for bass a deciever type teaser will pick up trout if they are around.
