A fishing reel includes a spool for taking up a fishing line and acting as an electric conductor also, and a brake mechanism having permanent magnets arranged adjacent a side face of the spool. The brake mechanism includes a controller for controlling a distance between the magnets and spool, and a perforated shield plate formed of a magnetic substance for insertion between the magnets and spool. The shield plate is interlocked to the controller such that magnetic flux of the magnets is shielded in a progressively increasing amount as the controller is operated in a direction to increase the distance between the magnets and spool.
