Default Trout fishing in Adelaide Hills - advice?

I’ve tried fishing for some Trout in the Adelaide Hills (South
Australia). I’ve seen both Redfin and Trout in the Hills, and I’ve
also caught some Redfin. At the moment, I’m still seeing fleeting
glimpses of Trout and Redfin, but they are very reluctant to go for my
Lures, which are typically Rapalas. I’m fairly sure the Lures I’ve
been using (my brother’s) are either Topwater or Shallow Running
Lures. The colour is very close to Rapala’s "Glass Mudler" or "Silver
Foil", which I think is way way too dull, considering the overcast
weather. I know there are fish there, as I’ve seen them many times,
but choosing the right Lures seems to be the issue. I am also toying
with the idea of using Live Bait rigs on one rod while using Lures/
Spinners on a second rod. (Even though Live Bait rigs are not the
standard for Trout)
I am looking for advice regarding certain Lure types/colours and Live
Bait types, in relation to different seasons and conditions. Different
Lures for Rainbows -vs- Browns?
Any advice?

It's SPAM is what it is. Rodney Long is a longstanding serial SPAMmer
of Usenet fishing groups.

It is a new "way" to fish, I'm the guy who invented it, it's called the
Wiggle rig, and there is no rig anywhere in the world that can make a
worm look more real, or minnow lure, while I'm at it

It's SPAM is what it is. Rodney Long is a longstanding serial SPAMmer
of Usenet fishing groups.


A question was asked, I showed them what would work, IT IS NOT SPAM, Ken
you need to read Usenet rules, and not make up your own. If someone else
besides me had made the post, you would have said nothing.

The only thing I posted was a video, not even where it could be bought
or even what it was called


I have never SPAMMED anyone, anywhere, according to the rules of the
internet, I alway post on topic, I use my "real" email address, and I
don't multiple post. My ISP has told me none of my post were spam, as
they have received a couple of complaints by people who don't understand
the rules, they read every post I have made to news groups to
investigate this

I am the world's leading expert on fishing this technique, but to let
you know, there are now over 50,000 other fishermen who use it,
including most of the big names in fishing, None of these have the time
on the water using it I have. SO I share this experience, too bad people
like you have run off other experts using "their" lures or their rigs
from the internet news groups

That's right. If someone else was recommending it that wouldn't
be SPAM, that would presumably be a genuine endorsement. When
you post an endorsement of your own product that's advertising
and commercial advertising on a non-commercial Usenet newsgroup
is Usenet SPAM. This isn't news to you, like I said you're a
serial Usenet SPAMmer of longstanding.
