This is my only question in this TR: how on earth is a fisherman
supposed to net a bigger fish in such a situation? I mean, with any
current at all - and there was a current here - even if the fish had
been *dead* it would still have provided a considerable
resistance.

After the fish is played out (meaning it won't make another run), get
downstream from it and wait for it to drift to you. Then,\ either tail
it or net it. Doesn't that sound easy? :-)

Great TR.
