Casting will probably work better than trolling. When I'm fishing in a stream, I cast the lure upstream and across, and wind it in just fast enough to give it action. (Think about it -- trout sit in a river looking for little struggling fish being washed downstream. They don't expect their meals to come upstream against the current.)

Cast toward some sort of structure, or into a riffle and work the lure into the calmer water below it.

Do the same with bait -- no weight if the water's shallow and you can cast the light weight, otherwise a splitshot or something to get it deeper and help your cast. Remember, let the current carry the bait so it looks natural, but watch your line so you'll know when you're bit.

Fly fishin takes years to learn ..it's an "art".. but if you just wanna catch some fish you can try letting bait drift with the current or cast a spinner under trees or undercut banks.
Casting down stream and reeling in against the current.

panther martin or mepps spinners work very well with trout or other "game" fish.

Tip:
Take some chicken livers and let them sit out in the sun ( so they get "stinky"), put them on your hook and let them sit on the bottom.(use a sinker) in a deep hole_ you'll catch some Big Catfish.

I've fished live bait for trout on the Brule river, in Northern Wisconsin, up on number #2 I believe. We just let big night crawlers on number 10 hooks float down the river, we caught anything up to ten pound Rainbow or twelve pound Browns. I have learned to fly fish since.
When the fish bite, you have to do, what you have to do.

use an ultralight spinning rod, with #4 line, loop a small bell sinker about 18 inches from the end of your line, tie a small hook to the end. bait it with 3 or 4 kernals of whole kernal corn.
cast across or slightly upstream of the current and let it drift in the fast water below or in a stretch of rapids.
if you cast it above a deeper hole and let it drift into the hole that is the best.
never fails.

Just use a line with bait and no sinker. Then let it go with the current.Pull it just enough so the bait looks like its struggling and then prepare for a great trout lunch
