Englewood Fishing Club (EFC) February Newsletter
February is here and we are transitioning into a comfortable weather change for outdoor activities like more fishing. More and longer warming trends and fewer cold fronts will bring favorable conditions for catching.
The Englewood Fishing Club meets 6:30 pm Thursday February 13th at the Rotonda Community Center, (646 Rotonda Circle, Rotonda West). Mike Meyers of Reel Shark Charters will share his tips for the Englewood Fishing Club’s “Sheepshead Tournament” coming up on February 21st, but he really wants to answer any questions you may have about fishing the Charlotte Harbor area. Bring your questions and stump the master. Enjoy the meeting and sign-up and/or participate in one or all of the upcoming events.
Fishing Tournament and Future Events
February is another open tournament; send a photo of your fish, or you with your fish to Steve Daniels retiredsteve@gmail.com for entry. Any fish from the EFC “Eligible Species List” qualifies for this tournament. Just one entry gives a chance to win a gift certificate. (Hint, entry into the El Cheepo Shepo Tournament counts as an entry.)
Winter winds and weather conditions are unpredictable and the weather did not co-operate; the January 17th Shark Fishing event will be rescheduled for March?
The Charlie Walsh Memorable “El Cheepo Shepo Tournament” is scheduled for February 21st. This year, entries are made with photos of your sheepshead next to a measuring device. Winner this year is determined by length and not weight. Entries that have been stepped on will not be accepted. Send your entries to Steve Daniels retiredsteve@gmail.com for entry. In addition, there is a social luncheon and get together scheduled for 2pm at Jr. and Rosies Neighborhood Café and Grill, 3754 N. Access Road, Englewood.
