right way to do it Ted is to put the reel on the rod, tie the line on and 99% of the time it's label up. You want to bring it in over the guides like this to keep the line from developing twist. Easy way to tell if the spool is backwards is to drop the rod tip and if it twists all up then it's backwards. Flip it and wind a little more on and you should be able to see the difference.
