ABSTRACT:
An improved spinning-reel particularly adapted to long fly-fishing casts with a shooting-head attached to trailing monofilament. The reel comprises a cylindrical solid shaft, with spool on one end, passing concentrically through and rotatably mounted in a hollow shaft, with bail on one end, rotatably mounted in a gear casing; so enabling the spool to rotate inside a stationary bail, and the bail to rotate about a non-rotating spool. The solid and hollow shafts are each driven by a reciprocally mounted gear thereon that may be axially engaged, by an externally controlled common drive selector, with either its pawl or the single, centrally located, crank-drive gear; so that one gear, at a fixed distance from the other, may be driven while the other is retained by its pawl. A rotating spool inside a stationary bail provides twist-free winding, storage and unwinding of a relatively massive, stiff, large-diameter shooting-head. A rotating bail about a non-rotating spool, for conventional retrieval of monofilament with line-twist, enables the monofilament's subsequent axial release with cancelling line-twist and the minimal tension so essential for long casts.
