FS36 is right; be sure to have snowshoes, now that more white stuff has fallen. In fact, if you don't have any and family is wondering what to get the fisherman who has 2 of everything already, that's a great gift idea!
Anyway, the Tigers we've caught on our trip this year were in the 16" to 18" range. Nice, aggresive trout, and a hoot to catch. I think of the 50+ the 3 of us caught, that maybe 3 were only about 10".

CAN YOU DRIVE YOUR 4-WHEELER ON TO THE LAKE THERE? fROM THE SOUND OF ALL THE REPORTS IT SOUNDS LIKE IT IS A STEEP HIKE DOWN TO THE LAKE.

The snow would be too deep for a four wheeler (I would not be surprised if it is at least four feet deep up there now). The hill isn't too steep [compared to Causey, East Canyon (except by the boat ramp) and Rockport]; however, the snow is often much deeper than at these other locations, and later on the ice can get extremely thick.

IS THERE A WELL BEATEN PATH TO THE LAKE SO YOUR NOT FIGHTING 4 FEET OF SNOW THE ENTIRE TIME?

Yes, there is a definite path, it all depends on how much recent snow has fallen whether or not you will be breaking a new trail. I had a little trouble with my sled tipping on its side in the path because it was narrow and the walls of the path were steep, but it wasn't a major problem. Either plan on using a power auger or make sure you have a really sharp hand auger. I wouldn't hesitate going for it now the slush has frozen.

The biggest Tigers are further south in the state....
