Abstract
A spring means associated with a pivotable thumb button (29) on a spinning type reel for urging the button away from its depressed position. An elongate resilient spring member (424, 524, 624, 724, 824) is engagable adjacent its opposing ends with the reel cover (12) and the underside of the thumb button (29). A tab (420), depending from the reel cover, engages the resilient member intermediate its ends so as to retain the spring and prevent longitudinal displacement of the same relative to the reel housing (10).
