Why is it ludicrous? Even if they aren't making much money at it its going to pay for the trip and who wouldn't want to be able to go fishing for free? What's the commercial value of 300+ pounds of bass compared to the price of a charter?
A complaint I hear often is that most "commercial" fisherman aren't really making a living at it they just use it to pay for boat, slip, gas etc... No difference with this scenario and whether you want to believe it or not it happens.
