(A) Are the spots seen right after it has come out of the blotting apparatus?
Or
(B) Are the spots seen after the ECL on the film?
If (a) then sounds like you had air bubbles between membrane and gel
If (b) sounds like you have too much ECL reagent left on the blot and the
blot is not sufficiently washed
(a) can be confirmed by looking at the evenness of your transfer with a
reversible stain like Ponceau Red.
