I use the same rig as I do in the day time hook, splitshot, bait. I have only fished 1 time at night for trout. I was fishing a private pond on a golf course. I did the owner a favor so he gave me permission for that night only and we had to put everything back but we did pretty well, caught some nice fish, and had a lot of fun.

Many times small glass minnows will ball up under the light and will either stay out of reach or be too small for use. Thus, it is advisable to bring cocahoe minnows along. Nevertheless, don't neglect using the 3-inch long glass minnows that often show up. Trout love these type minnows and will strike them even when in a finicky mood. Likewise with other types of bait that will show up, like ballyhoo or needlefish. That's right, needlefish and ballyhoo! Specks will hammer these species no matter how long or large. I've caught specks on 2-foot long needlefish. But as with all baits, they have to be properly rigged and presented!!!
