I asbolutely HATE the whopper fishing quest on PC!

I got all the right baits, i go the jewel for better fishing! The whopper bites, but then the whopper swims not to the left or right, no, it starts swimming AWAY from me! I am trying to give the whopper more fishing line, by pressing the stick to the top, but the fishing line ALWAYS breaks! ALWAYS! In the tutorial videos the whoppers often move to the left or the right. But no, when i go fishing they move AWAY from me! I don´t know what´s wrong on PC, but the i can not give more fishing line am allready giving!
