Pat, I appreciate your comments on causes of fish eyes, etc. After thinking about it I don't think I can blame the reducer being old, but the fact that it was too "hot" for the weather. We had an unseasonably cool day, and I did not properly compensate by dropping back on my reducer. Looks like I caused this "re-do" myself, but then I knew it was something that I had done. Another lesson learned....
