<p>ROTOR BRAKE FOR FISHING REEL Disclosed is a spinning style fishing reel having a housing with a front spool face and a rotor mounted on the housing having a bail that has an open casting position and a closed retrieving position. An improved means is disclosed for preventing the undesirable rotation of the rotor when the bail is in the casting position. A brake drum is mounted on the front spool face and a lever which holds the bail in the open casting position is mounted on the rotor. A brake device is mounted on the lever and presses against the brake drum when the bail is in the casting position. Thus the brake mechanism prevents the fishing reel rotor from inadvertently or accidentally revolving when the bail is in the casting position.</p> |
