Boating noob question

[LanceL]

I picked up a boat last fall for duck hunting. I would like to set it up for fishing in the off season. I don't need anything fancy, but I would like to set it up for trolling. I know the basic essentials that I will need. My question is, what kind of rigs do most use while trolling for trout? I have heard of pop gear, but I have no idea what it is. It is probably a silly question, but I would just like some advice on what to start with.

thanks.
