Abstract
A spinning reel includes a spool rotatably supported by a spool shaft, a drag member for imparting a braking force to rotation of the spool, and an adjusting member for axially pressing the drag member to thereby adjust the braking force. The spool includes a front face and an annular projection projecting from the front face for preventing water from entering the front face to reach the drag member. The adjusting member is provided with an annular groove for receiving the annular projection.
