When a person in charge of the operation of a commercial fishing vessel, whether or not that person is the owner of the commercial fishing vessel, has a commercial fisherman's license and is on board the commercial fishing vessel, then any person assisting in commercial fishing under the supervision of such licensed person need not have a commercial fisherman's license in his name; provided, however, nothing in this Section shall be construed to authorize any person to engage in commercial fishing in any of the waters of this state at any time when the commercial fisherman's license of the person has been revoked or suspended.
