If I don't close the bail before the bait hits the water line will just keep coming off the reel and it is a twisted mess I have cleaned and oiled the line roller
    What size line are you using?

    I like close to a quarter of a inch to the lip of the reel. I have tried 6 lb and 8 lb test

    I'm not familiar with the reel you're using, but its spool might be too small for 6 and 8# line. That's the problem with a lot of UL reels: the tiny spools are not good for line management. Try it with 4# to see if it's any better. If that doesn't work, try a new reel.
