Reel for fishing

A double bearing type fishing reel which comprises a frame body having opposed side frames and with a plurality of support extending between the side frames is provided. The frame body with the side frames and the supports are integrally constructed of a synthetic resin. A line-carrying spool extends between the side frames spacedly from the supports and is attached to axial rotation. There is mounted on the upper surface of at least a support on the line spinning side of the frame body a hard wear-resistant member which thus is disposed between the associated support and the line for protecting the engaged support from the development of scratches, grooves or other marring thereon by reason of the frictional heat which is normally produced by contact of the line with the support. The hard wear-resistant member may be of a multiplicity of configurations and may be mounted for either fixed disposition or for rotation.
