agreed. There is a certain way to pull the line off a spool when you put line on a spinning reel. The OP just pulled it off the wrong way. Common mistake

Yep. Usually, after 10-20 handle turns, I'll add some slack to see if the line twists or falls in nice, loose coils. If it twists, I flip the spool over. No problems.

When you spool a spinning rod lay the spool flat on the ground where the line uncoils the same direction as it goes back onto the spinning reel. If you do that there won't be any twist.


Also, always manually flip the bail. If you are using a bait like an in-line spinner or similar, invest in some good swivels.
