Spinning reel with tension roller for preventing fishing line twist

摘要

A spinning reel having a line roller mechanism which directs a fishing line running from a tip end of a fishing rod toward a spool while applying a tension to a part of the fishing line, the part being bridging from the line roller mechanism to the spool. The line roller mechanism includes a first tension roller having a first axial end face and a second tension roller having a second axial end face confronting the first axial end face. The first and second axial end faces function as fishing line contact faces and define therebetween a fishing line guide groove. A distance between the fishing line contact faces becomes narrower toward the spool.
