Fly fishing reel with lever driving spool - has gear train ratchet wheel and toothed sleeve uses line-return which functions horizontally

摘要

The fly-fishing reel has a casing with a cover, using a stop to locate a fixing-bracket, together with an axle and a hand-lever. The lever transmits rotation to a spool via a gear train, a ratchet wheel and a toothed sleeve, the system for returning the fishing line functioning horizontally. The spool is free to rotate on the sleeve due to the conjugate action of a spring compressed by an adjusting nut. The lever may function horizontally or vertically, the assembly adapting to suit right or left handed fishermen.
