Abstract
A bail arm turning mechanism in a spinning reel is disclosed. The spinning reel has first and second ears for pivotally supporting a bail arm lever and bail arm cam, respectively, to which each end of the bail arm is connected. A manual operation lever is pivotally supported to the first ear, and a rotational lever is provided in the first ear. The rotational lever has front, intermediate and rear portion. The front portion is engageable with the bail arm lever, and the rear portion is abuttable to the manual operation lever. Upon manipulation of the manual operation lever, the rear portion of the rotational lever is pivotally moved about an axis of the intermediate portion, so that the front portion pivots, to thereby rotate the bail arm lever, to thus provide bail arm turning.
