A fishing reel having an easily attachable and detachable front cover. The fishing reel includes a body frame having first and second connecting portions on both side portions, a gear-side, first side cover connected to the first connecting portion, a palm-side, second side cover connected to the second connecting portion, and a front cover connected to the front portion of the body frame to protect a level wind. The front cover is bolt-coupled to a front end portion of the first connecting portion using a first bolt member, the first bolt member being coupled to the front cover while extending inward from an outer surface of the first side cover, such that a head portion of the first bolt member is exposed from the first side cover. The front cover is easily detached and attached using the first bolt member without complete detachment of the first side cover.

A fishing reel comprises a level wind device that evenly winds a fishing line around a spool rotatably supported between left and right side plates of a reel main body. The level wind device comprises a fishing line guide body through which a fishing line is inserted, and a rib that is provided in the fishing line guide body and prevents line entanglement, and the O-ring is disposed in the cylindrical portion so as to fill a gap between the rib and an opposing portion opposing the rib of the cylindrical portion of the level wind device. The rib has a shape for sliding the fishing line in contact with the cylindrical portion.

A reciprocating mechanism includes a first supporting member, a second supporting member, and a biasing member. The worm shaft includes a shaft portion, a first shaft supporting portion having a spherical portion formed in a convex spherical shape at a distal end, and a second shaft supporting portion. The first supporting member includes a first bottom portion abutting the spherical portion. The second supporting member includes a second bottom portion abutting a distal end of the second shaft supporting portion. The biasing member biases at least one of the first supporting member and the second supporting member in an axial direction.

A fishing line rinse apparatus having a bucket with a drain spout. A perforated spool with a level wind is disposed on a shaft with a first quick-connector. A drive housing has a base with a pair of pulleys, and a hollow vertical column. A drive disposed within the hollow vertical column of the drive housing has a horizontal drive shaft, a differential, and a vertical drive shaft, wherein the horizontal drive shaft has a second quick-connector that engages the first quick-connector. The vertical drive shaft is selectively engageable with a drill, allowing a drill outside the bucket to spin the spool submerged in water in the bucket to wind and unwind the fishing line, thus rinsing the fishing line and transferring it from a rod to the spool and vice versa. A brake with a thumb screw is disposed on the spool to apply pressure while rewinding the line.

Provided is a fishing reel equipped with a replaceable hood top. The fishing reel includes: a frame having a mount; two side covers coupled to both sides of the frame; a spool disposed inside the mount of the frame and coupled to the side covers through a shaft; a reel foot coupled to a bottom of the frame to be mounted on a fishing rod; a hood coupled to a top of the frame; a handle coupled to a side of the frame through a shaft to rotate the spool; and a tension nut disposed on a side of the frame to adjust a casting distance by controlling a rotational speed of a spool shaft. The hood has coupling portions, and a replaceable hood top is coupled to the coupling portions.

A clutch control mechanism configured to allow or block a transmission of a rotation of a handle to a spool in response to either a rotating of the handle or an operating of a clutch operating member. The clutch control mechanism includes a clutch cam, a clutch plate, and a positioning structure. The clutch cam is rotatably mounted to the reel unit, and is rotatable between a first position and a second position. The first position blocks the transmission of the rotation of the handle. The second position allows the transmission of the rotation of the handle. The clutch plate is coupled to the clutch operating member and to the clutch cam, and is unitarily rotatable with the clutch cam. The positioning structure to position the clutch cam from outside in a radial direction about a rotational axis of the clutch cam when the clutch cam is disposed in the first position.

Provided is a fishing reel equipped with a concealment cover for side concealment of a level wind. The fishing reel protects the level wind by covering an opening on each side of a level wind mounting portion with a dedicated concealment cover, and allows a user to decorate the fishing reel by changing the color of the concealment cover to suit the user's taste. To this end, the fishing reel includes a frame configured to have a concealment cover mounting portion provided between side cover mounting portions and a top cover mounting portion, and a concealment cover coupled to the concealment cover mounting portion and configured to cover an opening on each side of a level wind mounting portion.
