OK guys, if you put your macho aside for just a minute let's try to make some sense of this. I don't use the rail on private boats (what rail?). On party boats, the real test is "can you get that fish on the deck?" There are 20-39 other anglers on board that are all potential sand traps or lateral hazards. I use any means possible to beat the odds. Illegal? I respect IGFA, but also realize they absolutely penalize party boat fishing. However, a really rich guy could charter the boat himself for about a month and set all kinds of world records. Now try it with 39 of your favorite friends on board (some of which you have never met and their kids). Think about it.
