Reminds me of an article I read about charter captains in south florida or the keys getting bored with competing against each other in tournaments, so the arranged a special tournament.  Each captain was given a tractor tire inner tube that they could trick out any way they wanted, and a chaser boat was used for each captain when they hooked up with a marlin from the inner tube.

Thanks for watching.   Up here in Alaska the fish n game board and Hal commission have tried to manage our fishery.   
   Bring your lawyer,  just be creative.  As a chartered fisherman you are considered guided as you stand in the mother charter boat,  and if you're towing a skiff, after hooking a reasonable fish that would exceed the size or quantity rule/law then you slip into the skiff and land your fish/prize and you are now non guided as a sport fisher and you beat the rules and laugh on the plane ride back home thinking people are so dumb?
   Yes this actually happens. >:(

those inner tube sailfish tourneys got pretty whack! It was like the state fair and Macy's parade of personal fishing craft!!!
