What type of fishing rod and equipment should I buy for trout?

I agree us spinners! I sometime use minnow imitation lures like smaller Rapala and Yozuris. I tried using some of those newer lures, Trophy Sticks, but have found that casting them is not the best idea. The paints chips off really easy if they hit rocks and one of the bills broke off after 2 casts!! aarrrhhh!!! Also on one of them the back of it was splitting like a big crack! You'd think for what they cost, they would be more durable!!! I won't be buying them anymore!! Have you been out Deergirl and any luck??
