A rotor of a spinning reel for fishing has a cylindrical portion, a first rotor arm, a first bail support, a first coupling member, and a first cover. The cylindrical portion is mounted rotatably on a reel body. The first rotor arm extends forward radially outside the cylindrical portion. The first bail support is pivotably rotatable coupled to a tip of the first rotor arm. The first coupling member couples the first bail support to the first rotor arm and has an engaged portion. The first cover covers at least partially the first rotor arm and the first bail support and has an engaging portion that comes into engagement with the engaged portion of the first coupling member.

A roller clutch includes an outer ring, an inner ring, a rollers, a torsion spring, and a housing member. The roller is disposed between the inner ring and the outer ring. The roller i configured to move between a transmitting position and a non-transmitting position. The spring biases the roller to the transmitting position. The housing member has a housing hole and an inner wall surface. The housing hole houses the torsion spring. The inner wall surface defines the housing hole and is configured to support the torsion spring.

The present invention provides a fishing spinning reel including a reel unit and a rotor that is rotatably supported by the reel unit. The reel unit includes: a body that has a side opening portion and in which a spool reciprocating device is housed and supported; a lid that closes the side opening portion; and a cover member mounted on a rear portion of the body. A handle shaft is rotatably supported by the body and the lid. In the rear portion of the body, a rear opening portion for receiving at least a part of a component of the spool reciprocating device and disposing the component on the rear side is formed. The cover member covers the rear opening portion and the component.

A spinning reel for fishing includes a rotor, a fishing line guiding mechanism, and a bail reversing mechanism. The rotor has a cylindrical portion, and first and second rotor arms disposed in opposed positions on the cylindrical portion. The fishing line guiding mechanism has a line roller to guide a fishing line, a bail, first and second bail support members supporting first and second ends of the bail, the first bail support member coupled to the first rotor arm, and the second bail support member coupled to the second rotor arm. The bail reversing mechanism inverts the fishing line guiding mechanism to line casting or line winding positions. The line roller is disposed on the first bail support member and the bail reversing mechanism is disposed inside the second rotor arm. The first rotor arm includes two support legs extending forwardly from an outer peripheral portion of the cylindrical portion.
