Abstract
A return force controlling mechanism for a bail arm of a spinning reel is disclosed, wherein one end of the bail arm return spring is fitted in a bail arm lever rotatably secured to one of bail arm supports and the other end of a bail arm is contacted to an arcuate surface of a cam member rotatably provided in the support. The other end of the spring is displaced by stepping rotation of the cam member, whose arcuate surface is formed to have an increasing radius whereby the biasing force applied by the bail arm spring is quickly and easily changed.
