Description

ABSTRACT:
To await a hit of a fish with a small tension applied to a fishline, there is provided a secondary drag mechanism in a drag device. A hollow shaft is rotatably fitted on a fixed support shaft of a reel frame and is operatively prevented from rotating in a reverse direction by a rachet and a claw. A braking gear meshed with a linking gear of a handle shaft and rotatably fitted on the hollow shaft is braked by a first drag device having friction plates on the hollow shaft. When the claw is disengaged from the ratchet, the secondary drag mechanism prevents the reverse rotation of the hollow shaft with respect to the fixed support shaft to produce a minute braking force against the reverse rotation of the handle shaft.
