ABSTRACT:
A drag device for a spinning reel, which is provided with first and second drag mechanisms for applying a rotational resistance to a spool shaft carrying a spool on which a fishing line is wound and with adjusting members of the drag mechanisms which are independently operable. A support cylinder is provided at a the reel body of the spinning reel and rotatably supports the adjusting member of the second drag mechanism. The support cylinder is provided with a regulation mechanism for regulating an adjusting operation range of the adjusting member of the second drag mechanism and an engaging recess for indicating substantially the center of the adjusting operation range. The adjusting member at the second drag mechanism is provided with an engaging member slidable radially of the support cylinder and engageable with the engaging recess and a spring member for biasing the engaging member in the direction of engaging with the engaging recess. This enables the center of the adjusting operation range of the adjusting member to be set so that the second drag mechanism can both increase or decrease the drag force relative to the value set by the first drag mechanism.
