Abstract
A release preventing device for a fishing reel provided with a one-way clutch that allows a rotating body, such as the spool of a double-bearing type fishing reel and the rotor of a spinning reel, to rotate in one direction but restricts rotation of that rotating body in the other direction. Rotation is restricted in the reverse direction, the direction in which fishing line is released, by a wedge effect, wherein roller members are wedged between an inner race and an outer race.
