One rod, a handful of hooks and floats, and a few small lures are enough for this water. Where a permit is needed, the nearest town usually sells it. Barbless rules turn up on managed water more often than not. Pikes Pond at 2 km is the sensible second choice. For Little Beaver Pond in particular, ask before you travel.
