ABSTRACT:
A spinning reel is provided with a housing, a rotor, a crank, drive assembly for rotating the rotor, an anti-reverse assembly for selectively preventing reverse rotation of the rotor, a centershaft with a line spool, a front drag assembly between the spool and the centershaft and a rear drag assembly between the housing and the centershaft. A locking means is provided on the rotor for locking the spool to the rotor and for locking the rotor to the housing so that long casts can be made with the reel. A bait clicker assembly is associated with the rear drag and is provided with a plunger which, when in the "off" position, will engage a ratchet wheel on the rear drag which will lock the rear drag, clicker and centershaft against rotation. Putting the plunger in the "on" position with the anti-reverse assembly in the "on" position will disengage the ratchet wheel so that the rear drag is operative. If the pull on the line exceeds the drag setting of the rear drag, the ratchet wheel will rotate, generating an audible clicking sound indicating that line is being pulled off the reel.
