Maybe what could be done is: set the fitness value as the predictor and the gradient vector elements for multiple iterations as the dependent variables, and then use multivariate normal regression with multiple $y$ values regressed on fitness. Whenever fitness decreases (not a descent step), make a prediction of the next lowest gradient values assuming fitness increased by a given increment. Even though this is a linear approach, it may work.
