El Cheapo Sheepo Tournam

Want  to go fishing on a cold  (for  south west Florida)  windy day in February?  That's when the Sheepshead are usually biting best, and that's when the Englewood Fishing Club's "El Cheap-0 Sheep-O Fishing Day"  is scheduled.

This is usually the Club's first "official" fishing trip of the year,  and you can fish from a boat or pier.  It's one of the most popular fishing trips of the year, and we guarantee  "Cheap-O" prizes for the largest Sheepshead, a good lunch, and good fun for all.The weigh in is followed by a lunch at a "Waterside Grill" with plenty of ho coffee and soup to warm you up for the "awards" ceremony.

SIGN UP & RESERVATIONS  for the TRIP and LUNCH are required, and are handled at the February  Regular Meeting.

A Conservation Note:  We would like to point outt that only 1 fish per angler may be weighed in.  As the Florida State Bag limit is 10 Sheepshead per person, and they are tasty fish, we would like  advise anglers that they may "Keep"  more than the "weighed in" fish, however we encourage angler only to "Keep"  what they intend to eat. and release the rest.
