The first two days of trout season were a little rough in our area due to the heavy flooding from Thursday/Friday's rainstorm, but fish were caught. Most people found live/natural bait to work the best. When the water was still chocolate colored, trout were hitting on pink Powerbait. Today was the best day yet, with waters turning back to mostly normal.
Cheese worked very well, fished with a light split-shot about a foot up and drifted in deeper holes with a good current. The problem with cheese, though, is that trout often swallow it, making it difficult to remove the hook. Always have a pair of forceps or needle-nose pliers with you. But even these may not be enough, so if you aren't planning on keeping some trout, try out some corn or minnows.
