ABSTRACT:
A spinning reel is disclosed and has a housing with a center shaft upon which a spool is mounted for holding a fishing line. A handle and gear train assembly are provided for rotatably driving a rotor which is coaxially mounted on the shaft. The rotor has bail ears upon which bail arms carrying a bail are mounted with the bail being movable between a closed retrieving position and an open casting position. A unique bail actuating mechanism is provided which rapidly moves the bail from the retrieving position to the casting position. The bail actuating mechanism has an overcenter spring apparatus which operates on one bail arm for holding the bail in the line retrieving position and, when manually moved beyond a certain point, drives the bail rapidly to the open casting position.
