I had always thought that it was Saurons will that had stirred the ring, both his and Saruman's forces were searching for it in the area, Sauron's will was bent on finding it and the ring wished to be found, it was just 'luck' or 'fate' that caused Deagal to find it. Of course, Ulmo may have had influence on where the good fishing spot was etc. so that the two friends fished in the right spot. Does Ulmo have sway over the animals that inhabit water? Because if so he could have made sure that the fish dragged Deagol into the water.
An interesting possibility!
