"Though difficult to tell from the photos..." Seriously? Why won' the DWR just admit something when it's plain as day? This seems an awful lot like when the DWR would refuse to admit there were wolves in Utah, and any reported wolf sighting was dismissed as a coyote or a big dog...even when there were pictures showing them. Even when a wolf had been captured and relocated. I know of someone who tried to report bear tracks in the foothills above American Fork to the DWR office a few years back. He was told there are no bears there, and he must be mistaken. Really?
That's a tiger trout. There is no question about it. There is no difficulty telling from the photos. Just acknowledge that the stocking programs aren't perfect, and fish that aren't supposed to get some places do get there.
As for tigers in the Berry....why? Go to Scofield (or 150 other lakes in this state) if you want tigers. I think it's refreshing to have at least one solid fishery where they aren't dumping a billion tiger trout in there. I like catching tiger trout, I just don't want to do it everywhere.
