Abstract
The disclosure is of a spin-cast reel wherein a spool is slidably and rotatably carried on an axial body extension. A rotary shaft carrying the rotor is coaxially mounted in the extension and a drag control knob is mounted at the back of the reel body, also on the axis of the rotary shaft. The drag control knob carries a nut that moves along a threaded rod which, in turn, forces the legs of a U-shaped member against a disc spring to apply a drag force against the side of the spool. Thus, the drag can be controlled from the rear of the reel and on the axis of the spool and rotor.
