One thing you'll find around places where people fish for catfish is little pieces of red licorice and empty swedish fish wrappers. These aren't snacks, people are tipping the hook with candy and using a stink bait like liver as the main bait. Sorry, I just contributed to ruining the "new" super secret bait but I'm not a big fan of catfish so....
For trout in a stream, get an F-3 rainbow Rapala and float it past the hole, then retrieve it back up so it dives and swims slowly with some darting action. You'll want a C-5 Rapala for deeper rivers so you can get some depth.
Kastmasters are great for distance and depth, a chartreuse striped kastmaster is killer on trout.
You also want to tip lures. A piece of crawler or mealworm is great but the Gulp! maggots are a little better in my opinion because a smaller piece gives off a ton of scent and stays good for many casts. A bit of bait on a lure turns chasers into biters. You want to pay attention to the bait restrictions, you can't use bait above the Olmstead dam on the Provo.
