A drag mechanism has a drag operation member, a first
cam member that is arranged on the inner
peripheral portion of the drag operation member, a second
cam member that is disposed opposite the first
cam member, a drag adjustment member that is relatively rotatably mounted on the second cam member, a retaining member that retains the drag adjustment member in the axial direction relative to the second cam member, first and second urging members that urge the spool axially toward the drag operation member, a first
brake member that is fixedly attached to the spool, and a second
brake member that is movable in the axial direction of the spool shaft relative to the reel unit when at least one of the drag operation lever and the drag adjustment member is pivoted. Attachment and removal of the cam member can be performed easily.
