I am using Eagle Claw at 15 lb test,


That could be part of the problem. 15 pound test is pretty heavy line for
spinning tackle and I'm not sure what diameter the line is. Remember that
the larger the line's diameter, the less inclined the line will be to
conform to the spool and the more likely it will be to spring off the spool,
especially if you're using a smaller spinning reel with a smaller diameter
spool. The heaviest line I'll ever use on a spinning reel is 12 pound, and
usually I'm using 4 to a max. of 10 pound.
