A 7 year old pair of GCs as the house bank might be approaching the end of their life expectancy. If your batteries are weak, they won't be able to accept the charge available. It's the acceptance rate of the batteries that will determine the current flow. If the batteries are sulfated, they will suffer a reduced acceptance rate.
Have you noticed reduced battery capacity during extended periods on the hook? Do you have a SOC meter?
