You're not wasting your time by any means. Bass are bass, they like to eat other large fish no matter where they live :)
Most of my fish around here that have been caught on swimbaits in lakes that don't have trout have been on the 9" MS Slammer or on 5" big hammers. As already mentioned, the mattlures baby bass and bluegill and the triple trout are great bets also.
The most important thing is to not think in terms of limitations. If you think something may work, go and try it. And expect that the bigger the lure you use, the longer you will go between bites. Throwing a big bait on any lake (trout or not) for one day is rarely an indication of the potential. Throwing a big bait for 5 or 10 trips will give you the real clues about what the possibilities are.
