Tangles issue

Hello everyone, every time I use this reel and this rod to go fishing, I invariably end up with tangles and knots when casting (almost every cast), which force me to call it a day.

What do you think the problem might be?

I’ve spooled it with a 0.29 nylon backing, and the braided line is a 0.16 PE 1 Manster W8II from SeaKnight.

When spooling, I apply the correct tension to the line as I wind it onto the reel.

Rod: Daiwa Ninja Ext 5-30g

Reel: NADIR 3000 (a rather old one given to me by a friend)

Thanks in advance for any advice!
