Poacher random encounters during fast travel. What do you do?

I can't talk to him and if I hang around he will eventually attack me then if I kill him I get a rep hit. What exactly are we expected to do to them?

I murder his ass.

I murder a lot of people in this game actually

Oh, I'm very nice and polite in dialogues.

But I play my Henry as the kind of Henry that beats the Faint-hearted Knight in a duel, then sneaks up behind him and murders him to take all his stuff. Then as I'm riding along a forest path at mach 5 I bump into a peasant. He tells me i should learn how to ride a horse. I tell him he should learn to walk with an arrow in his spine

If you don't draw your weapons, poachers will fist fight you. I use them as punching bags all the time to skill up in fisticuffs.

It's good for your back and digestion, and your purse if you know what you're doing.

Well unless you're a vegetarian Henry and only level up bow playing Chumps, you're likely to be doing an outrageous amount of poaching yourself so it would be a bit rich to kill them for doing the same thing.

Which is why I just go hand to hand. Knock 'em out, loot them, and keep your Civilians Killed stat to a non-homicidal zero.

Serious spoiler. Play the whole story if you haven't.
It's not poaching if You're the son of a noble
