Abstract
A spinning reel is provided with a rotor having opposed arms projecting over a skirted portion of a normally non-rotated spool. A line guide bail has arm cams at its ends to pivotally support the bail to the rotor. One of the bail arm cams also forms a lever portion. The bail is pivoted through a wide angle, in response to rotation of the rotor, from a line casting position to an intermediate position and finally to a line winding position. In moving from the casting to the intermediate position, the bail arm lever strikes a kick plate carried by a stationary reel support leg. This conditions the bail so that an interior, stationary kick bose is engaged by a kick plate connected by a link to the bail arm cam to swing the plate and connected bail to line winding position.
