If its trout you are after , Use one of those spinners but add a small treble hook stinger to the back. Bury it right in with the tail feathers or bucktail (whatever is on the end of your spinner).

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.

...and how can we forget about these?
Used with a down rigger at 15' tolled in a "S" pattern produce quite a few trout back in the days when it was actually worth fishing Stafford Pond.
Biggest trout I ever pulled out of there was a 5 lb rainbow caught while trolling a MANNS Baby 1 minus 150 feet from the boat. What a beauty she was! She was leaking eggs all over the boat so we decided to put her back. No camera to be had that day, just a great moment with my old man etched into my mind forever.

What size roosters are best for trout I have the 1/8oz flavor in a bunch of colors...... I have also have done well with kasmasters and swedish pimples
I'll be trolling around brickyard pond this year  Melville is a fish tank. Only the lower pond is worth going too way to many ppl on the upper....

What, no 4 oz diamond jigs?
I live about a 100 ft away from a stocked trout stream...problem is I never get to fish it on opening day b/c about 400 people show up the night before and clean out the hole by noon!
Earthworms and shiners. Jeez, doesn't anyone flyfish anymore?
