You can make it with 4X4.  We dirtbiked it last year but people were camping up there in their trucks.

What I do remember is there was not much access around the lake other then trail down to the lake from the campsites unless there is another area to access the lakes I'm unaware of.

Did not fish the lake so can't comment on that.

You can get down with a truck no problem, fishing has been good, but there pretty small.

Does it have to be a truck or can a subaru outback make it? What kind of terrain is it? Boulders?

I made it down with a Delica van a couple of years ago.  I remember the worst part was right at the top, I think it was more of an issue of sharp corner.  Your car should squeak through just like my van did, however I bet you will hit bottom once.
