Abstract
A spinning reel having a reverse rotation preventing mechanism for selectively preventing the reverse rotation of the rotor of the reel in which the amount of protrusion of an operating lever for setting the rotation preventing state is reduced. A rocker lever pivotably mounted to the reel body has only one actuating portion extending beyond the surface of the reel body when in either operative position, namely, the rotation locked or unlocked position. A forward arm of the rocker lever is pivotably joined to a locking lever, the forward end of which is engageable with a locking gear fixed to the shaft of the rotor. If desired, a locking pawl can be interposed between the forward end of the locking lever and the locking gear.
