ABSTRACT:
In a fishing reel, there is a main drive shaft rotatably on the reel body. A separable unit shaft may be selectively coupled to either end of the main drive shaft to drive it. The reel handle or crank is secured to a sleeve that is rotatable on the input shaft. Both the handle sleeve and the input shaft carry radial flanges between which are carried a drag disc and a friction washer. Pins on the drag disc engage through holes in the handle sleeve. A drag star pushes on the pins to squeeze the friction washer and adjust the torque that may be transmitted from the handle to the input shaft and, hence, the main drive shaft.
