Another Striper Record
Found this report on Mexfish for Cabo San Lucas!!!
ANOTHER STRIPER RECORD--The fishing team of the Cabo San Lucas boat Reelaxe celebrated its record of 190 striped marlin releases in a single day and 330 releases in 2 days to win Cabo's recent 2007 Mini World Championship Billfish Release Tournament (WCBRT). Angler Jose Espinoza on the boat also set a mark of 59 billfish released in a day. Fishing aboard the Reelaxe were Chris Badsey, Dave Brackmann, Steve Brackmann, Alex Rogers, Jose Espinoza, Mark Clayton, Saul Contrearus, and Dennis Poulton. The boat had set an earlier mark of 179 striped marlin releases on Nov. 3, 2007. PHOTO COURTESY OF CHRIS BADSEY.

A fish every 2 minutes!
There're a couple of threads discussing the earlier 'record' here and 'techniques' - http://www.big-game-board.info/gener...ber-of-marlin/ and http://www.sportfishermen.com/board/...ord-27512.html.
