[font "Times New Roman"]Capt. Jason Brice (skipper of Casa Vieja’s “Twenty”) reporting from La Gomera, Canary Islands:[/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"]"Last week on the “Rigel IV” - Day 1- 0-0, day 2- 1-1, day 3- 1-4, day four (1/2day) 1-1. No big fish, but everybody seems to be seeing fish everyday. Awaiting our boat the “Freespool” to be delivered. It’s a 39 Guthrie.[/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"]There were some good fish caught today. The “Hedonist” caught one 920#, with John Phillips. The “Bocinegro” released a big one as well, with Tim Choate."[/font]
Capt. Brice continues: "Now aboard our boat the "Freespool" - 39 Guthrie with the owner and his son we raised today (01 July) 7 blues, had 4 bites and caught 2.

Jon Phillips and Choate caught 6 on a boat called "Atlantis". Everybody saw a bunch of fish!"
Capt. Brice says Elias Rodriguez (familiar to some)is there and catching the BIG fish:

"I believe he caught the 920# on the boat, "Hedonist". Caught one 400, and pulled the hook (leader wrapped on the bill) on one 600+ yesterday. The day before caught 2- one was 500 and the about 350."
