Comparing apples to oranges, eh?
That's OK, have it your way. Life's too short... :D

Apples to oranges?  The odds of catching a steelhead while nymphing for whitefish are as low as catching a sturgeon while fishing for sockeye or springs (there was a thread on here detailing a number of sturgeon by-catch in past years).  My point was...do not insult people (calling them cheap) for not purchasing a steelhead tag when they are not planning on fishing for steelhead, unless you are of the mind that every angler should pay a full fee and do away with all surcharges period.  Now I understand that what you are really saying that the people who are fishing in the winter are really fishing for steelhead, even if they say they are fishing for trout or whitefish, so they are in fact fishing illegally.  But if that is what you want to say, then just say that.
