The line-retainer mechanism includes a spool engaging unit engageable with an engaging portion of the spool so as to reciprocate with the spool and to rotate relative to the spool and a rotary frame engaging unit engageable with an engaging portion of the rotary frame so as to rotate with the rotary frame and to axially reciprocate relative to the rotary frame. The spool engaging unit includes a roller member engageable with the engaging portion of the spool and rotatable therewith.
