ABSTRACT:
An open-face fishing reel of the fixed-spool type has a rotor, a line spool coaxial with the rotor, and a bail for winding a line on the spool. Two attachments are provided on the rotor. Two mounting elements carrying the bail are so rotatably mounted on a respective attachment that the bail is pivotable about a bail axis perpendicular to the rotor axis, between a folded-in line-winding position and a folded-out position in which it is released of the line. One attachment has an open chamber. The damping device has an elastic damping element provided in the chamber under one mounting element which has a lug for cooperating with the damping element. The damping element and the lug are so positioned that the lug, when the bail is pivoted from its folded-out position to its folded-in line-winding position, engages the damping element in order, during the final phase of the pivotal movement, to compress the damping element so as to bring about a gentle braking of the rotational movement.
