First, wear nothing that has to do with gators, or you may be beaten and left in a ditch. I would try spinners like small rooster tails, Mepps spinners, or Joe's Flies maybe. My favorite thing to catch trout on is a nightcrawler pulled in half on a small trout hook. Put a small split shot weight a few inches above the hook. Hook the worm so that the worm will spin if thrown into a hole, or under a waterfall. Also, make sure that where you are will allow live bait. Good luck!

A small Panther Martin or Mepps spinning with no bucktail should work. The very smallest Rapala is good too. If you are not required to use artificial bait, you can buy a can of corn at Publix. Most of these trout are raised in a hatchery and only last a few weeks in the river so they go for corn better than anything else. A night crawler works too.
