The reel only adds twist if your bail arm roller isn't working properly, so the correct way is as stated in tin heads clip

correct, to counteract the twist your reel is adding by turning the line 90 degrees.

You're right, mono is manufactured in a linear process and is would on to the bulk spool 'straight on' but you have to factor in the twist added by the reel, and loading off the side of the spool helps counteracts this (as long as you do it the right side)

You are saying line should be taken off the bulk spool by laying it on its side, no?

No it isnt, its taking it off in the reverse of how it went on. The link tin head put up shows the correct method

You're putting twist in the line by spooling it horizontally on your reel (via the line roller) Label up vs label down is effectively unwinding the line off the bulk spook clockwise or counter clockwise. Having the bulk spool one way will counteract the twist you're adding at the reel end, and the other way will exacerbate it.

its got nothing to do with labels
Mentioning labels was an easy way to describe the orientation of the spool, unless you've got an old Mitchell reel the label facing you is in most cases the accepted way if you have faith in this method.
Maybe my post didn't make it clear but your post doesn't make it clear to me, do you use a method similar to that in my link and chuffy's pic or do you do the other method. If it was the later then according to you I shouldn't of got the problem but I did..

If this post confuses then maybe leave it there as I'm with IP100 and Chuffy on this as it works for me and whatever you do works for you

I've never understood why people say that, line doesn't go onto the spool from the side, so why take it off that way? It's wound around the central spindle of the spool, therefore it shouldn't come off either label side or the other side, but from straight between the 2 sides, The same way that an extension lead comes out and retracts for example. The spooling tool you can buy on ebay for a few quid is the way to do it properly, or get someone with a pencil through the spool

Some lines are oscillated during loading of the spool so you have to use a different method entirely to load them (spool on the side vs. spool flat). You really need to check during loading to make sure you're using the suitable method.

When your putting on new line the line goes on to the reel spool clockwise so has to come off the manufacturers spool anti clockwise if your laying it flat on the floor. Its got nothing to do with labels, probably why you got twist straight away. Been spooling up like this for years and never had a problem.
