Whenever I see poaching in the act this is what I do.......I walk (or paddle) up to them, ask them in a polite manner if they would like to borrow my tape so that they could check sizes and see if there catch is legal. Sometimes they don't know that what they are doing is wrong and a crime and it gives them a chance to correct their behavior. Othertimes the person is just outright up to no good and that brief encounter gives me time to take in a better inventory of info to give to DFG including descriptions and exactly what poached fish are in their posession.
