The line could have been spooled on without any pressure - that could do it.
The spool could be over-filled.
Your line could be caked with dry sea salt - or dirty. Sometimes back up spools have old or dirty line on them.
You could be reeling in your eel with a lot of slack or "belly" from the wind - that will make the line lay loose on a spinning reel. This happens especially under windy conditions. Try turning into the wind with the tip horizontal to the water. The wind is going to be strong tonight and Sat - keep an eye on the line to make sure you are in contact with the eel.
Most likey new line put on under pressure and a complete cleaning of your drag washers should fix it. Replace the drag washers if necessary.
