ABSTRACT:
A drag producing structure in a fishing reel of the type having: a housing with a deck plate and a spool support sleeve projecting from the deck plate; and a line carrying spool assembly mounted on the support sleeve and having a central axis and an associated flange with an axially facing surface, the spool assembly being rotatable relative to the housing to allow payout of line. The inventive structure consists of: a clutch ring having an axially facing surface; structure for mounting the clutch ring to the deck plate so that the spool assembly flange resides between the deck plate and at least a first part of the clutch ring; and structure for urging the first part of the clutch ring selectively towards and away from the spool assembly flange to selectively increase and decrease a captive force on the spool assembly flange to thereby vary the reel drag.
