Default Clutch Line Leaking at Slave Cylinder

I replaced my clutch master cylinder and slave cylinder and when I went to bleed the lines clutch fluid started shooting out the middle of the bolt where the clutch line connects to the clutch slave cylinder, am I doing something wrong?

The line hooked up just fine to the master cylinder, I was real careful about not stripping the bolt or bending the line so I don't know whats wrong. Is there some trick to this?

No trick just make sure your fitting has been tightened. If it still leaks you may have split the metal line. If this is the case you can cut away the damaged part of the line, borrow a flairing tool and use the same fitting. I just did my slave + master and mine was leaking slightly from that connection. It is in a miserable place to get a wrench on but we were able to get another 1/2 turn on it and it is fine.
