Never tried that stuff . In the creeks and Rivers I fish for stocked Trout the baits that I use are :Mealworms ,Worms, Night crawler pieces , Crawfish tails , chub pieces and Red Breasted Sunfish pieces .I cut pieces of  fish which I catch  in the river on a worm. They work great on Brook Trout ,Worms work on everything that swims there .Cray fish can be caught in the River and work particularly well on the Brown Trout .
