The regs are a little convoluted IMO. The USCG says...
"Commercial Fishing
Vessels" and are subject to the fishing vessel safety regulations.
In addition, a vessel, 5 Net tons or more engaged in
commercial fishing, must be documented with the Coast
Guard and the Certificate of Documentation must be endorsed
for "Fishery".
Most vessels longer than 25 feet are five tons or more.

As Mike pointed out different rules for being documented rather than state reg.
But lots of boat owners don't document when they are required also.
