Anybody used trout beads for brook trout?

I have used trout beads with a lot of success for steelhead and brown trout from the Salmon River in NY but was wondering if anybody has ever had luck in smaller creeks and streams for brook, brown and rainbow trout. I have been advised they work so well in the Salmon River due to the large amount of fish eggs in the Salmon River from spawning salmon and steelhead but I've been curious if trout in smaller bodies of water where large spawning runs don't occur would respond to the beads.
