Have you checked the pawl to make sure it is performing correctly and it is screwed on tight?

 

How about introducing your self and adding where you live so we can help you better.

First Hello and welcome.   What reel are we talking about?  What line are you trying to spool on it?

You may want to take it into Bass Pro Shops and have someone look at it. It maybe defective.

 

Also did you tighten up the drag star a bit as well as the spool tension. I would suggest watching some of the baitcasting videos Glenn has on this site.  Lastly did you make sure your arbor knot was tight. If the knot you use to attach the line to the spool is loose  it can allow the line to spin and not spool correctly.

Just a few ideas.
