I am always surprised that so few anglers in North America make any effort to get alongside or downstream of their hooked fish early in the battle. Does it not constantly give the fish the advantage of the current. It's a basic principle drummed into us in UK as babies in arms! Trying to reel a fish back up through white water?.However, hell of a battle and well done Sir! You kept remarkably cool and a memorable pretty fish
Steelhead don't normally leave the pool, once the fish left the pool I started chasing, not easy wading there and I started working my way down over 200 yards to catch up to it. I have had less then 10 steelhead leave the pool over the years.

I think that is point to be honest - give the fish the advantage. Personally I have never tried it but I'm definitely thinking about it!!
