Boat the first two and put them in the box. You could always give the others some slack line in hopes that they would come unbuttoned. If they don't come off, try to keep them in the water while you remove the hook and get them back in as quick as possible.

As far as only 2 lines per angler, most guide trips are 2-4 clients. With 2 clients and the guide, that is still 6 rods.

Like Dave said, those over the limit hook ups are not all that common.
