What's wrong with this splice?

Alright chaps, I'm just learning to splice doublebraid and I've done three splices in silverstreak, following the Samson instructions. Each time I'm getting this kinda bulge on the left hand side - can anyone point out where I'm going wrong? is it an something to do with the cover taper (5,5,5 according to Samson)?

 

I've done some Marlow friction cord and some Poison Ivy and didn't have the same problem, they turned out ok :001_smile:
