There are two basic methods, depending on the type of reel. If your reel is the push-button type with a cover over it, it is a spincasting reel. If it is the open style with the metal bail, which looks like a bucket handle, it is a spinningreel. If it has the push-button and no cover, with the line exposed where you can place your thumb on it, it is a baitcastingreel.
By design, spinning and spincasting reels will twist the line. All you can do is load it properly to minimize the twist. You do not want to let the spool spin on a pencil. Lay it flat on the floor. Usually it should have the label facing up. To make sure this is correct, take the reel off of the rod and hold it upside down over the spool. Turn the handle as if you are reeling in line and pay attention to the direction in which it turns. You want the line to be coming off the spool in the same direction. If it is not the same, just flip the spool over on the floor. It may help to go ahead and tie the line to the reel temporarily and watch it go from the spool to the reel slowly to make sure you have it right. If it is right, the part where the line comes off the spool can be directly below the part where it goes onto the reel the whole time. When you're ready to put all the line on, put the reel on the rod and tread the line through the rod first, to make it easier. Remember a little twisting will occur, but not very much.
With a baitcasting reel, just have somebody hold a pencil in the eye of the spool and let it spin while you reel it up.

What else can I help you with?
Can you put normal fishing line in a fly reel and use it for normal fishing?
It's possible but the reel and rod are not made to handle the stresses that monofilament fishing line will put on the gear. The drags on a fly fishing reel are not as robust as a conventional reel.
How can I effectively remove fishing line from a reel?

How does a fishing reel work to help anglers catch fish?
A fishing reel works by allowing anglers to cast their fishing line farther and reel it back in smoothly. When a fish bites, the reel helps to control the tension on the line and bring the fish in.
How can I replace fishing line on my reel?
To replace fishing line on your reel, follow these steps: Remove the old line by unwinding it from the reel. Clean the reel and spool to remove any dirt or debris. Attach the new line to the reel by tying a secure knot. Wind the new line onto the reel, making sure it is evenly distributed. Trim any excess line and test the reel to ensure it is working properly.
Is there a way to safely remove a fishing line stuck under the reel without causing damage to the equipment?
To safely remove a fishing line stuck under the reel without causing damage to the equipment, you can try gently pulling and unwinding the line, using a pair of tweezers or a small tool to carefully loosen and remove the tangled line. Be patient and avoid using excessive force to prevent any damage to the reel.
How do you line a fishing rod properly?

How do you properly thread fishing line onto a fishing reel?
To properly thread fishing line onto a fishing reel, start by tying the line to the reel spool using an arbor knot. Then, close the bail and start winding the line onto the spool evenly and tightly. Make sure to keep tension on the line as you wind it to prevent tangles. Once the spool is filled to the desired level, cut the line and secure it with a knot or tape.
What happens when you under fill a fishing reel?
Three things can happen when your reel is not fully spooled:You will not be able to cast as far due to the added friction of the line on the reel when a cast is made.You increase the chances of a large fish "spooling" (pulling all your line) you when you fish.If your reel is not fully spooled and you get a cutoff while fishing you may end up with very little line on your reel forcing an end to your fishing activities.
How is a fishing rod a fixed pulley?
Not the rod, but the reel. The reel is fixed at one location on the rod. It winds the fishing line around the spindle of the reel as you "reel it in".
What type of fishing reel was made first and how did it work?
The first fishing reel that was ever made was simply a wooden spool that usually held thread. It was attached by a basic system to a wooden pole and strung through some brass pieces of wire (eyelets) and then to the hook and cork bobber. It worked simply by thumbing the spool when a fish took the line and then twisting it (so as to retrieve your line) after the fish tired out.
