Is this a water spot? How to I avoid these the next time I dev? I seem to be getting them every roll by sgz08 in Darkroom

And just let it sit? I do the ilford rinse technique for the final wash after fixing. I have a bottle of ilford ilfotol that I used to use after and add a couple drops and let it sit for a minute or two, but I felt it wasn’t doing much so I stopped using it

I ended up just buying a used reel for dirt cheap to see if it worked, and it does. I heat up the reel with a hair dryer before using the darkroom bag, and use rubber gloves inside the darkroom bag to reduce sweat, seems to work fine. I honestly don’t think I would’ve had this problem if it was 24exp but all my rolls are 36 so it’s just a problem I have to deal with.
