The one-way clutch is disposed between the rotary drive shaft and the reel main body and includes: a rolling member; and an outer race disposed between the rolling member and said main body. The outer race has an engagement portion. Further, the fishing reel includes a rotation preventive member secured to the engagement portion, while being fitted into the reel main body, to thereby prevent the rotation of the outer race with respect to the reel main body.
