Frog-only kayak bass challenge hits Roosevelt Lake
Kayak anglers chase bass and series standings at Roosevelt Lake using hollow-body frogs during an early-morning catch-photo-release fishing competition weekend.
Event details
The Arizona Kayak Summer Slam moves to Roosevelt Lake for its next stop, where the format shifts to hollow-body frogs only, sending competitors chasing bass, series points, plaques, and big-bass honors across another of the state’s scenic desert reservoirs. Catch-photo-release entries keep the pace brisk from the pre-sunrise launch onward, with standings updated as anglers return to the marina throughout the morning.
The lure restriction is what makes each Summer Slam stop feel genuinely different: anglers who fished soft plastics at the season opener now have to rethink their entire approach for Roosevelt’s frog-only rules, giving families following the series something new to watch and discuss between tournament stops on the calendar, and rewarding versatility over a single reliable technique.
As with the series’ other stops, the remote launch and 4 a.m. start make nearby lodging or camping the practical choice for competitors and their families. Arrive the afternoon before to scout access and rig boats, then let companions enjoy boating and shoreline scenery on Roosevelt Lake while the tournament unfolds on the water throughout the morning.
