Scag Velocity Deck bagging issue

2011 Scag Velocity deck
48" Walk-behind
Grass Gobbler metal catcher

For some reason it's not bagging so nicely. I have the same mower in 36 with the grass gobbler catcher and never clumps or throws grass. My 48 clumps and leaves a line of grass It's kinda weird because its leaving a line without it being full of grass. I brought it to my scag dealer who I bought it from and it's lined up as it should be. We put a high lift blade on the outer side (bag side) to maybe help it and it didn't change anything

What do you guys think

Is there a lot of grass stuck to the underside of the deck?

No. There was a little bit that was scraped today.

I did see that. But the mower has 10 hours on it

Any other ideas ?
Should I try another brand catcher ?

Are you mowing at full throttle?
Does this catcher have a vent screen?
Does the deck discharge normally without the catcher installed?
Does your other mower have a grass catcher that you can try on this machine?

Yes full throttle.
It's a grass gobbler catcher that's vented all around but the bottom
My other deck is a 36 advantage deck so it won't fit.

Went to my dealer and the catcher is mounted properly. We had it up in the air and its all lined up. We put a high lift blade on the furthest most blade towards the bag to see if it would help but no change. It throws clumps out in a line when the bagger isn't even close to being full
