Default Not new to Fluro on baitcaster, on a spinning reel...

I have been using Vicious Fluoro since last year on my baitcaster for flipping,pitching, and cranking. After spending a week at Kentucky lake last week, and had such great luck using a 1/8 oz shakey head, I decided to put fluoro on my spinning rod.

I spooled up Vicious 10 lb fluoro last night by having the line come off the spool counter clockwise as the reel loads clockwise. I also pulled the line through a KVD line and lure conditioner soaked rag. I also liberally sprayed the kvd on the spool after filling.
I then tied off the line to my boat and stretched the line across my yard (100yrds). After reeling backing in and snipping the line...I opened the bail and about 7 or 8 coils jumped off the spool and the trailing edge of the line wrapped aropund my rod tip.

I have read that fluoro is difficult on spinning reels but...does anyone else have any tricks to make it more managable for spinning reels?
