I know I sound like a broken record but perhaps giving customers a lasting memory in the form of digital media is something the for hire fleet should look into.

6 packs can mount a couple of gopros, party boats could have mates wearing them on their hats. Clients catching a fish of a lifetime could have their footage Dropboxed to them.

I bet this paradigm of party/charter boat customers needing to kill and eat stripers is far, far outdated. People want a record of their catch, they can load up on porgies during the season for food.
