Sounds like you got a good handle on what to use. Here are some other good choices:
1. Blue Fox Vibrax Minnow- These work esp well in current situations. The 1/8-1/4 OZ Models will catch a variety of fish including Trout, Bass, Pike, Walleye, Etc.
2. Rapala Shallow Shad Rap- These work exceptionally well in shallow weedy areas.
3. Booyah Chatterbait-http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_83936____SearchResults I was not “sold” on these until recently. If your fishing muddy/stained water or low light conditions, (like at Sunrise/Sunset and at Night), this newly designed lure WORKS! If the fish are conditioned to seeing, (and “feeling”), Spinnerbaits, a chatterbait puts out a different “signature” in the water.
4. A jig- Any 1/4 OZ Jig with a Berkley Curly-tailed Grub or a Berkley Gulp Leech. Jigs are inexpensive, productive, and catch a variety of fish. AND you don’t feel so bad when you lose them! –

5. Cotton Cordell Rattle Trap-
I live near Duluth, MN and fish in WI rivers regularly. Hope these work as well for you as they do for me?!!!
PS- Make sure to dowse all lures with some fish attractant. It makes fish “mouth” the lure a sec longer where you can feel them better.
Good luck.
