Try using Trout Magnet....it's great for trout.

Leeches and minnows.
I caught them on just about every color but always have brown, gray, olive and black jigs on hand. I haven't found it necessary to tie a particular "pattern" but always try to have them look "buggy". If you have ever seen caddis fly larva on a stream rock or log, that is a good thing to imitate - a short cream maribou tail with a brown (debris colored) chenille works good on trout and panfish.
Here's one I use

Hmm, up here in the north the brown trout like something a little more meaty it seems. Lots of streamers for flies and minnow patterns for jigs when I fished them in Montana and Idaho. Leeches kill them out here but they don't seem to like the bright heads on jigs, not browns anyway.
Thank you all for your input. Great Board!!!
