I bought a new batch of fluoro for my spinning combo. Its a pretty decent line, but it keeps on springing off the reel after I cast. I think it might be a little bit too wide a diameter for the reel, but I wasn't too sure. I soaked it in some line pray, so hopefully it should help, but has anyone else had that problem and what did you do for it?

Or you wound it on backward.

Fluoro and Spinning Reels don't like each other. You can try Mono or Braid for the main line and a fluoro leader of about 3-5' long or maybe try and spray the fluoro with Reel Magic line conditioner.

Or you wound it on backward. Which direction should the line be coming off the spool that the line comes on?

I had no idea that that could even happen! Looks like I wasted a spool of line...

Does anyone have any good ways to spool a spinning reel? I lay the spool face down on the ground and reel it in by hand, seems to work but takes a minute or two

I had the same problem and was about to sell the combo when someone recommended braid. I spooled it up and have not looked back.
