摘要

The speed change system for a fishing reel comprises a control rod (34) which is biased towards the raised position by a spring, but can be depressed into the reel casing. The rod has a peripheral groove (341) and a locking plate (422) fits into this to hold the rod down when it is depressed. A release button (42) disengages the plate. A pivot (412) at the other end of the plate allows it to act as a rocker arm to release the rod.
