A spinning reel includes a rotor 5 rotatable relative to a reel body 2 and supporting a bail 4. The rotor 5 defines a plurality of teeth 8 on an inner peripheral wall thereof. The reel body 2 has a pawl 9 mounted in a forward position thereof for engaging the teeth 8. The pawl 9 is controllable by a cam 11 rotatable through a wire spring 10 interlocked to a rotor drive shaft 6. The cam 11 retracts the pawl 9 from the teeth 8 when the drive shaft 6 rotates in a line winding direction, and allows the pawl 9 under a spring load to engage one of the teeth 8 when the drive shaft 6 rotates in a line unwinding direction. <IMAGE> |
