ABSTRACT:
A fishing reel of the spin-cast type, having a body, carrying a forward projecting fixed hub, a line-carrying spool, a drag adjusting plate between the body and the spool. To eliminate canting of the spool on the hub as drag pressure is applied angularly on the spool; a non-rotatable disk drag supported on the hub having a projecting cylindrical support for the spool, operatively engaging the wall and predetermined bore of the spool rotatably supported on the disk drag. Resistance from the disk drag to maintain its integrally formed vertical and horizontal shape, urges co-axial alignment between the spool and hub. The disk drag being formed of material which is compatible with frictional movement, permits smooth rotation of the spool on and against the disk drag as line is pulled from the spool against drag pressure.
