ABSTRACT:
A clutch mechanism for a fishing reel having a spool and a spool shaft supported at both ends by a pair of side plates. a handle for rotating the spool and spool shaft is engaged through a drive gear to a pinion gear. The pinion gear is slideably mounted on the spool shaft and the device includes clutch means on the spool shaft to engage and disengage the pinion gear with the spool shaft by moving the pinion gear axially on the spool shaft. A clutch cam moves the pinion gear axially and an operating lever is linked to the clutch cam for disengaging the pinion gear from the spool shaft. Rotation of the handle in a first direction causes the pinion gear to engage the spool shaft and an operating lever is rotatably supported on a shaft extending between the side plates of the fishing reel.
