Abstract: A fishing spinning reel that includes a rotor having a pair of opposing arms on both sides of a rotor body, wherein one of the pair of arms is provided with, at a forefront end thereof, a supporting member including a fishing line guide; a spool configured to wind up a fishing line through the fishing line guide; and a stiffening member extending from each of fore portions of the pair of the arms towards a rear portion of the rotor body. In one embodiment, the stiffening member is formed to be more spaced apart from the pair of the arms as approaching butt ends of the pair of the arms. In one embodiment, a portion of the stiffening member apart from the pair of arms may be connected to the rotor body.

Abstract: An object of the present invention is to make it possible to easily fix a cover member to a reel unit of a spinning reel while exposure of a fixing member to a rear portion of the reel unit is reduced. A reel unit includes a reel body, a lid member, a reel unit protection member, and an intermediate member. The reel body includes an accommodation space that opens to a lateral side, a first insertion hole that is communicated with the accommodation space, and a second insertion hole that is disposed on the opposite side of the first insertion hole and is communicated with the accommodation space. The lid member is detachably/reattachably mounted to the reel body so as to cover the accommodation space. The reel unit protection member is mounted from backward so as to cover the reel body and the lid member, and includes a boss that passes through the first insertion hole from a rear portion of the reel body and protrudes toward the accommodation space.
