ABSTRACT:
A precision balanced fishing reel incorporates a fork-mounted spool coupled to an axle that rotates upon precision bearing assemblies. The fishing reel is rotationally balanced and fabricated from lightweight and heat-tolerant materials to facilitate high speed operation with little or no vibration and wobble. The fishing reel includes a disc braking system that utilizes a rotor coupled to the spool through a clutch bearing. The clutch bearing is configured to prevent independent rotation of the spool, relative to the rotor, in an outgoing direction while permitting unrestricted rotation of the spool in an incoming direction. A brake assembly employs brake pads to control the amount of rotational drag of the rotor and spool.
