Here is a pic of a splake caught by my brother this winter at a lesser known splake water:
I am not sure what "outperformed" is supposed to mean, but I would say that the only way tiger trout could be considered "better" fish for Utah is that they are easier to catch than splake...as far as growth goes, if you put splake and tiger trout into the same lake (and I can think of a couple), growth is pretty similar. If you put splake and tiger trout in equal numbers into Fish Lake or Joes Valley, I would suggest that you will have very similar growth and neither will control the chubs or the perch...
...If catching a splake is your goal, Fish Lake and Joe's Valley are probably to good suggestions. Forsyth Reservoir is another good option...
