Soon I'm moving to a lake where there are brown trout and rainbow trout and I'd love to learn how to catch these fish. I don't even know anything about fishing so I either need a website link, or someone to explain step by step, including what equipment I need.
 
Dangle food on a hook and when the fish bites you yank the hook to set in the fishes mouth. Then you reel it in.
 
go buy a stick of dynamite or a shotgun and shoot them. redneck fishing at its finest
 
Start simple with a proven technique. Mornings and evenings, trouts come to the surface to eat insects. Get a simple rod and reel, a beginner's kit will do. Stuff a worm on a hook, fix a float one to two feet higher on the line and throw it as far as you can from shore (30-50 feet). When the float dips, swing the rod slightly and quickly upwards to hook the fish.
It is true though that this technique will work fine in particular spots and fail in other spots. You have to try different spots until you find a good one.
 
Trout are among the most fun fish to catch, and are also mighty tasty!

Just buy yourself an inexpensive small rod, some spinners or flies, and a bucket to sit on...

Here are some links that will help:
