How Do I Use An Open Face Spinner Reel To Fish For Trout On A River In Missouri, Can I Fly Fish With This Reel?

In fly fishing you cast the line as opposed to casting the lure like in spin or bait casting. The weight of the line carries the relatively weightless fly. In spin casting the weight of the lure carries the relatively weightless line.
As already been mentioned, you can use a fly as bait with a float and cast that with your set up. Depending on the size of the fish you’ll be casting to, you can use your reel on a fly rod with fly line (if it’s large enough to hold a fly line) to hold the line. Then you’ll simply strip the fish in by hand using your fingers to place tension on the line to act your drag.
Back in the day, before the fly reel as we know it was invented by Charles F. Orvis (hence the name given to the CFO reel), people used bait casters to hold their fly line.
How do you unhook a fish from the saltwater on n a fly rod without dunking the rod?

Spinning reels CAN NOT be used with flies, except, perhaps you used one of those bubble floats and a fly. With spinning reels, you can use small in-line spinners for those trout.

Try spinners or spons OR if you have live worms or minnows use a splitshot and a hook, cast upstream and reel in slowly as you bounce the bottom. You can also bottom bounce yarn flies (easy to tie) or real roe sacs. Bottom bouncing is deadly for rainbows and brookies. Not good if there’s lots of snags. Keep your line tight while river fishing so you can get a hookset.
