ABSTRACT:
A brake mechanism for a fishing reel has a spool shaft, braking pieces radially displaceably disposed on the spool shaft or a rotating system interlocked with a spool, an annular friction member contactable by the braking pieces under a centrifugal force occurring with rotation of the spool, thereby applying a braking force to the spool, and a braking force adjusting device operable from outside a reel body for adjusting a pressure of contact between the braking pieces and friction member when the spool is rotated. The braking force adjusting device includes permanent magnets provided on the braking pieces, magnets opposed to the braking pieces across the friction member, and a mechanism for adjusting quantities of magnetic flux applied from the magnets to the braking pieces.
