There's current? How is there current?
If there's current, the trout will be in or near it. If you're talking about an old creekbed scenario, they'll be in the creekbed, and will be patrolling/ambushing prey that approaches the sides of the creekbed.
If it's a creek/stream inflow, they'll be facing into that, probably near the bottom, though they might rise closer to the surface around 4am local for a few hours.
Rainbows have been caught as deep as 60+ feet in some reservoirs.
