Abstract
A fishing reel is described whose spool has a pair of first and second flanges, the first flange located at the side for drawing out a fishing line for casting and being smaller in diameter than the second flange. An annular edge is provided at said first flange outer circumference projecting forward of a reel body. The spool slidably supports a sliding cylinder having a fishing line guide in close contact with the projecting edge, so that a change of bulk of line wound onto the spool allows the sliding cylinder to slide, whereby contact resistance applied to the line which is drawn out in contact with the first flange is controlled so as not to increase correspondingly with the length of the drawn-out line.
