Abstract
A spinning reel includes a reel body, a rotor attached to the reel body to be rotatable relative thereto, and a bail supported by the rotor to be switchable between a line releasing position and a line winding position. The rotor supports a switch arm for switching the bail from the line winding position to the line releasing position. A rotation stopper is provided to stop rotation of the rotor in response to an operation of the switch arm to switch the bail to the line releasing position.
