rich,
You may be using a reel that is too small for the line weight. Or, too much backing. Or, you forgot to take the old line off before you put the new on? I rarely mess with the fly line, I'll remove backing. My figuring is: if I get down to the backing and I haven't turned the fish yet, I'm in deeeeep trouble. Prepare to break off!
