    Hi

    Rathbeggan i herd is a good choice (I think you can only keep 1 or 2 fish) I'd give you advice if i new about bait, But i only fly fish But one thing wrong with Bait fishing for trout is hooking them, I herd the hook goes deep in there mouth, So i'd use barb hooks for the fish you going to keep and then change when your releasing them (I'm not bait fisher, I only fly fish) I'd Say use worms (If you can) Great bait for rainbows I remember fishing there and people catching on worm
