I'm not as much help with the rod question as I have also been asking around about what kind of rods to buy. But there are a lot of knowledgeable people here that can really help you out in that area.
However I can be of some help in the lure part. I have had a lot of luck with lipless cranks like rat-l-traps, usually in silver. Spinners have also produced well for me. I have caught fish on Chartreuse and white. I used a topwater popper last August at Powell and had great success with that. When it comes to colors I like to stick to colors that are representative of the food available to the fish in that system. The Utah chub is a pretty wide spread forage fish in Utah so I usually by silver colored cranks and spinner. I have just started getting into the jigging arena and I like the pumpkin and watermelon colors myself. Good luck.
