I have worked with commercial fisherman and they "ram" each other all the time out of anger fighting over the fish!
The problem with the ocean is there is NO real law or conservation taking place!Its a free for all!So i could realy care less whos getting rammed for what reason thats life at see in the lawlessness that it is!
I dont see com fishing as being lawless at all...Do was relize the fines that are aposed on fishermen for having as little as one short fish? No matter if you are one mile offshore of 199.9 miles offshore.I know guys that have had trips of scallops(25,000lbs and more) for exceding their catch by 115 lbs. Far from lawless
