ABSTRACT:
A fishing reel is provided with a line length measuring device to determine the unwound or wound amount of the fishing line based on the number of spool rotations. It is provided with a micro computer-implemented function to detect when the fishing line wound onto the spool reaches a prescribed winding amount. The line length is measured by micro computer execution of a formula for line length calculation determined by the total number of spool rotations when the fishing line is wound to a prescribed winding diameter level of the spool, according to the actual number of spool rotations when the line is unwound or wound, as counted with an incremental/decremental counter. Further, when the fishing line reaches the prescribed winding amount, the prescribed winding amount detector so informs.
