Bass and pike are best chased on at least a 6-weight rod, though Id recommend a 7

Note: You must pay $10 as a non-resident to enter the reservoir park, and an additional permit must be purchased to use personal watercraft on the Res, but Rocky Mountain Paddleboard rents boats and boards right on the water no extra permit needed

Without wishing to appear controversial (but I know this is going to be) I would observe that really, a significant number of anglers have little regard to the welfare of carp and they will always favour a barbed hook because of fear of losses otherwise

The deeper you are fishing with less light penetration more contrast is needed to help you bait stand out
