The one-way clutch including an outer race being attached to the reel unit, where the outer race being not rotatable to the reel unit, an inner race unitarily and rotatably coupled to the handle shaft, and rollers disposed between the outer race and the inner race. The drag mechanism includes a drag washer unitarily and rotatably coupled to the handle shaft. The handle disposed between the drag regulation member and the reel unit, and includes a through hole. The handle shaft penetrates in the through hole, and is unitarily and rotatably coupled to the inner race around the through hole. The spool is rotatably attached to the reel unit.

Abstract: A dual-bearing reel spool-braking device configured to brake a spool rotatably attached to a reel body having first and second side plates has a tubular brake member, a moving member, and a cover member. The tubular brake member is attached to the first or second side plate, and has a base and an opening. The brake member is disposed such that the opening is opposed to the spool. The moving member is axially non-movably attached to a rotation shaft of the spool, and contacts an inner peripheral surface of the brake member when the moving member is moved towards the brake member by centrifugal force generated by rotation of the spool. The cover member is attached to the first or second side plate to cover the opening of the brake member.

Abstract: A fishing reel has a reel unit that is mounted on the fishing rod, a spool that is rotatably attached to the reel unit, a tension detector that detects tension applied to the said fishing line, and a communication portion that transmits to a fishing information display apparatus data of the tension applied to the fishing line detected by the tension detector. The fishing information display apparatus is provided externally of a fishing reel, and receives data communicated from the fishing reel. The fishing information display apparatus includes a body member, a display portion provided in the body member, a communication portion that receives from the fishing reel data of the tension applied to the fishing line, and a controller that is displays on the display portion the data of tension received from the fishing reel.
