ABSTRACT:
A fishing reel is adapted to be shifted between casting and trolling modes and includes a housing, a spool which includes a line portion around which fishing line can be wound and which is adapted for rotation about an axis relative to the housing, and rotating means for rotating the spool. A first bearing means is provided for mounting the spool on the housing on one side of the line portion. There is a space between the entire spool surface and housing on the other side of the line portion at least wide enough to accommodate a strand of fishing line. The first bearing means includes means for accommodating movement of the spool between the normal axial position and a second position where the spool will engage the housing when pressure is exerted on the spool and return to said normal position when the pressure is relieved. The housing includes an opening therein located to allow the fishing line to be shifted between the trolling mode whereby the line is generally perpendicular to the spool axis and the casting mode whereby the line will unwind generally axially from the spool through the space.
