I assume you’re not at Delta? Every month a regular line holder has to earn a certain amount of credit before a green slip (premium trip) will pay double. If you are below the trigger a GS will simply pay single pay towards the trigger. You need to pick up trips via white slip (straight pay) or silver slip (double pay with no trigger) in order to get to the trigger to make any green slip flying you do pay double.

I was not senior enough to hold reserve with the days I wanted off, so I got a craptastic line of 63:10, which is 4:26 under the GS trigger. The first 4:26 of a GS would be single "credit" no additional pay, where all after the trigger is double pay, no credit.
Pay and Credit is very oddly/awkwardly named at Delta.
RES, which I usually do, GS's pay only single pay above RES guarantee, but there's no trigger and you get your days off back, and then sometimes a bit more.

GS trigger is 5 hours under ALV (average line value) so for me, next month, with ALV of 72:36, the GS trigger was 67:36.
