Abstract
A two-drag mode, front and rear configuration spinning reel has a trip mode selector switch means. This switch means lets the reel be used in the free spool shaft condition to rotate a rotor frame and take up line upon turning the handle, without automatically shifting the device into the condition of a locked up spool shaft. The switch also allows for both the automatic and manual modes at the preference of the user.
