Can anyone explain, I thought a fishing vessel had precedence over a sailing vessel

I believe fishing in narrow channel has to keep out of the way of everyone at all times, regardless if they can only navigate in a narrow channel or not. I always pick fishing vessel must avoid in these questions and it's usually right.
