Location Details: Roosevelt lake is a great big water lake. It is specificly known for its bass and large catfish. Sometimes the wind on this lake can be intimidating, so a good boat is needed. There are two arms (TONTO on the West, and SALT on the East), where those two rivers drain into the lake. The Salt river continues on south out of the lake into Apache lake, Canyon lake, Saguaro lake and the into the diversion dam that feeds the canals into Phoexix. Roosevelt lake can be accessed from SR 88 between Globe and SR 87 south of Payson. There are numerous camping areas, boat ramps and facilities in the area. An access pass is needed for the area (check locally for info)
Wiki Excerpt:Theodore Roosevelt Lake (usually called Roosevelt Lake, sometimes Lake Roosevelt) is a large reservoir formed by Theodore Roosevelt Dam on the Salt River in Arizona as part of the Salt River Project (SRP). Located roughly 80 miles (130 km) northeast of Phoenix in the Salt River Valley, Theodore Roosevelt is the largest lake or reservoir located entirely within the state of Arizona (Lake Mead and Lake Powell are larger but both are located partially within the neighboring states of Nevada and Utah respectively). Both the reservoir and the masonry dam that created it, Roosevelt Dam, were named for U.S. President Theodore Roosevelt who dedicated the dam himself in March 1911. Roosevelt Lake is a popular recreation destination within the Tonto National Forest, as such the facilities located at this lake are managed by that authority.
