Well, not exactly.......

A dragger working an area actively fishing yes you have to yield, he is restricted in mobility. A small cc actively fishing with no restriction, engine running, you need to give way to a sail boat.

But common sense should prevail where the sailboat could have made a move way prior to that.....
