An anti-tangle device is disclosed for use in a fishing reel which includes a hub, a spool carried by the hub for maintaining a supply of fishing line, and the spool having a radially extending front wall terminating in an outer rim. A center shaft extends axially through the hub. A spinner head is carried on the forward end of the center shaft and at least partially longitudinally overlaps the front wall of the spool defining an annular gap therebetween. Crank and gears are provided for rotating the center shaft and for selectively moving the shaft forwardly and rearwardly of the spool for moving the spinner head therewith. A drag washer is mounted on the hub forwardly of the front wall of the spool and includes an annular flange projecting rearwardly over the rim of the front wall. Fishing line drawn radially from the spool rides on the flange of the drag washer to prevent entanglement of the line in the gap between the spinner head and the spool washer.
