Schweizer 300CBi pick ups

Hi. I'm training on the schweizer 300CBi and having slight trouble with throttle correlator during the pick up before 20" MAP, the problem is when I begin to raise the collective the rpm flucuates even though I anticipate the need to reduce throttle as I raise the collective but it seems like am chasing the needles to maintain rpm in the green band maybe this is normal in a sense.
Why does throttle need to be reduced during this stage anyway, is it because the correlator over manages RPM while the heli is still on the ground like load is still on the skids and not the blades or something??

Thanks
