Marlin from a Jet Ski
Well I've seen footage of big fish taken from a kayak, but never a Marlin from a Jet Ski! here's the link - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wGDlBb-642w.
As the 'mad' Aussie says 'don't try this at home'! He leaps in the water to release what is still a 'green' fish and appears to take wraps on the leader.

Then the other end of the scale
Just to prove you can get as wet though fishing from a 'Battlewagon' backing down in a big sea - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4UnBn...elated&search=.
Really don't favour this approach though that they seem to use off the Great Barrier Reef of 'releasing' fish on 'J' hooks towing yards of single strand leader. I suppose its only saving grace is that quick releases lead to less attacks from Sharks.
