Why #1's, Iron? In that kind of water you could easily fish 2/0 & 3/0's. It's not going to make any difference to the fish but you'd sure get the bigger hook gap and the stronger hook your looking for.
Call me jaded but I no longer consider winter steelheading to be a finesse sport. I was a cracker for way too many years.
Why not forget the #1's and get some real hooks? what
