ABSTRACT:
An open-face spinning reel having a conventional line spool assembly, spool cap means, and line bail means, the reel structure being further provided with an adjustable drag mechanism for controllably adjusting the rotation of the line spool upon the spindle shaft. The drag assembly includes an indicator bezel which is arcuately fixed to the spindle shaft. A drag adjustment knob means threadedly engaged upon the spindle shaft applies a drag force against the indicator bezel and the drag assembly, the adjustment knob means having indicia cooperatively arranged with indicia on the indicator bezel so as to provide for an absolute indication of the force being applied to the drag assembly and accordingly the amount of frictional force resisting free rotation of the line spool.
