I am a southern boy and have only a little experience with Northern's which was in Canada a few times. the old style of Red and White spoons always produced big pike. I think it's called a Devil horse spoon? but I now have CRS when it comes to names of fishing lures, so good luck with your pike fishing. I have also caught them on in-line spinner baits. And on the Trout, What type of Trout? Crank baits work on rainbows and browns.
Do not judge me by the politicians in my City, State or Federal Government.
I've had great luck with the Yo Zuri pins minnow. Its comes in multiple patterns and sizes.
