Default Proper Way

I'm about to put some line on one of my old reels and I need to know the proper way to put it on. Last time I tryed, the drag was messed up and I couldn't fish with it. By the way it's a spin reel

How to Spool Line On Spinning Reels
How do I put line on my new open cast reel
Put line on spinning reels right and the line will not be twisted
1. Pull old line off reel thru line guides until you have enough room on spool for new line
2. Always leave some line from spool through rod guides and past end of rod to tie new line to
3. Tie new line to end of old line with a blood knot or two clinch knots
4. Lay spool of new line on the floor so line comes off spool just like it goes on your reel spool
5. Hold line tight with left hand just above reel
6. Reel line onto reel slowly, making sure it is spooled tightly
7. Fill spool to within 1/8 inch of spool lip

Gere is a good site for you to look at. Not that your directions are bad Trout slayer. I just think going a little more in depth would be helpful.
