Have you considered Brook Trout instead of Rainbows? The brookies could possibly reproduce, but the RBT never will. I would be careful with the golden shiners. The only place I've ever read of them being a real problem was in a trout pond. There was an article several years ago in pondboss about FHM as forage for Brook Trout. It compared the growth of brookies on just an insect diet versus the minnow diet. The differences in growth/size of the brookies after something like 3 and 5 years was AMAZING! You can look up the past article and order it if you are interested. I have a copy, but it is currently at my cabin.
Glad to have another trout guy around!!
