ABSTRACT:
An open face fishing reel having a line spool with a flyer mounted to rotate concentrically of the line spool. A finger is fixedly supported from the flyer and is curved in general conformity with the outer periphery of the line spool and is inclined axially with respect to the spool in order to project over a selected portion thereof. Rotation of a crank rotates the flyer and causes the finger to pick up and direct retrieved line onto the spool. Means are provided to limit retrorotation of the crank, and limited retrorotation effects optimum axial displacement of the line spool with respect to the flyer, and thereby the pick up finger which is itself moved to a predetermined position circumferentially of the line spool by virtue of the aforesaid limited retrorotation, in order to facilitate unfettered removal of the line from the spool during casting.
