ABSTRACT:
A braking system for a rotating spool casting reel comprising a pair of diametrically opposed weights that are driven outward by centrifugal force, opposed by tension springs. At the beginning of the cast, the weights are driven outward into cooperation with an outer braking medium to produce an initial drag. As rotation decelerates, the drag decreases until the springs bring the blocks into engagement with an inner cylindrical surface that produces a substantial frictional drag to bring the spool to a stop to minimize the chance of overrun. Either the weights or adjacent reel housing is provided with magnet means and the other is made with electrically conductive material to augment the braking action.
