Never been trout fishing. What do I need?

I’m a bass fisherman. Also do a decent bit of saltwater when visiting my parents. Bass season cools down around here (Maryland) soon. The gunpowder river is a stocked trout fishery and I figured I can trout and smallie fish come winter time.

I know I need some waders. Thinking an UL/ L rod maybe 5’6” and a 1000 series reel? What line should I use? 4lb mono? Then lures. Man I’m lost lol. Want to get on some trout soon without spending $$$ so any tips on a beginner setup would be great.
