If you're taking kids fishing, try a small marshmallow with a salmon egg on top and use a small split shot about six inches up from the hook. The marshmallow keeps the egg off the bottom and the trout seem to love this set up. You might even look for some small circle hooks to avoid gut hooking your catch...and they're safer for the kids to handle.
When it comes to big Alaskan rainbows, you can't beat a backtrolled hotshot and for you fly guys, the egg-s#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&g leech in black and orange is the proven rainbow killer.
