ABSTRACT:
An open-face fishing reel of the fixed-spool type has a housing and a spindle rotatably and axially displaceably mounted therein. A line spool is non-rotatably connected to the spindle and axially fixed to one end thereof. A drive shaft is mounted in the housing and extends at right angles to the spindle. A handle is arranged for rotating the drive shaft and a driving gear non-rotatably mounted thereon. A driver element is axially fixed on the spindle. An oscillating gear meshes with the driving gear and has an eccentric pin engaging the driver element in order, upon rotation of the drive shaft, to move the spindle back and forth in its longitudinal direction and, thus, oscillate the line spool about a center of oscillation. A shifting plate supporting a bearing pin for the oscillating gear is pivotable about the axis of the drive shaft in order to shift the bearing pin and, thus, displace the center of oscillation of the line spool to a suitable position, depending on the diameter of the fishing line used, in the longitudinal direction of the spindle.
