ROOSEVELT LAKE

Named after President Theodore Roosevelt, Roosevelt Lake is the biggest and the oldest of the six Salt River Project lakes. The lake was formed by Roosevelt Dam, which still holds the title of largest stone dam in the world. Fishing is the main gig at Roosevelt Lake and visitors can hook smallmouth and largemouth bass, catfish, and crappie. With hundreds of campsites to stay at, the trip to Roosevelt Lake can last for days, allowing visitors time to really soak up all 21,000 acres of fun the lake has to offer. www.arizona-leisure.com/lake-roosevelt.html
