Default Carson lake?

I was just wondering if anyone has a report on the conditions at Carson Lake. If there is ice, how thick is it? Thanks.

Carson also has sucker fish. The lake located at the entrance of the park has white fish, pike and sucker fish.

A buddy and I hit Carson today and did quite well. There was approximately 4" of ice where we fished, but very little snow on the lake making for a slippery walk. Fishing wasn't fast and furious like I've seen it in the past although we easily caught our limit in a couple hours.
