ABSTRACT:
In a clutch mechanism for use in a fishing reel of the type wherein a pinion is coupled with or disconnected from a spool shaft by a clutch cam and a clutch bar so as to transmit or interrupt torque applied by an operating handle to the spool shaft. A kick lever is provided which is pivotally mounted on a cover of the clutch mechanism and operated by a push button, a slider pivotally connected to the kick lever, and a pawl pivotally mounted on the slider to engage and disengage a ratchet which is mounted on the cover. The pawl is maintained by a spring at a position slightly displaced from a line interconnecting an axis of the ratchet wheel and a center of rotation of the pawl thus avoiding arresting of the pawl by a tooth of the ratchet wheel.
