All depends on what is available...I always caught my own night crawlers..I enjoyed doing that as much as fishing when I was a kid. LOL

But these days....if shiners, worms , minnows etc were easily available..I'd be using minnows.
I've never caught a trout on one but MANY bass, crappie and channel cats. I've caught lots of trout on worms...I raise red worms...nice chunky ones that stay alive for a long time.

If it was me ..I'd have 2 rods out with minnows and 2 rods out with red worms or crawlers.
