Abstract
A spinning type fishing reel having a bail arm which is rotatably mounted at both ends thereof to diametrically opposite sides of a rotary frame so that an intermediate portion of the bail arm may turn over and pass across the front of a spool in swinging motion between two positions where a fishing line is respectively guided to be wound up, and released. The point around which the bail arm swings is made movable longitudinally of the reel, thereby allowing the bail arm to be turned over by elongating the distance between a crest of the intermediate portion of the bail arm and the basic position where the arm is supported for guiding therethrough the line to be wound onto the spool.
