I don't see this as poaching. Rather I think it is simple cheating. It hurts the honest commercial guys but if the fish are sold and counted under the allowed commercial quota it does not hurt the fishery itself, the way real poaching would. As a recreational fisherman I'd much prefer the DNR focus on illegal fishing that hurts the actual resource (such as recreational guys selling under the table or buyers under-reporting landings) rather than get involved in which commercial guy is screwing which commercial guy although I accept that honest commercial fishermen deserve protection under the law.
