This one reminds me of my last steelhead. I set the hook with a moderate amount of slack line still in hand. As the fish starts running down river the line loops around my finger and knots itself on. I ran downstream continually trying to flick the loop off my finger hoping to keep the leader from breaking. Eventually I managed to free the line from my finger and land the fish. This video from 406 Productions makes my little episode look like child's play.
