BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a fishing reel such as a spinning reel, a bait casting reel, and a trolling reel. More specifically, the present invention relates to fixing a fishing reel to a reel sheet provided on a fishing rod without looseness. A fishing reel that can be used.

[0002] In recent years, the popularity of glue has increased, and fishing has been sporting. Above all, with respect to fishing using a fishing reel such as a lure fishing, fishing reels having high functions have been developed one after another, and fishing rods for using the same have been evolving year by year.

[0003] Particularly, in a reel sheet for fixing a fishing reel to a fishing rod, a high fixing is required to prevent the fishing reel fixed to the fishing rod from dropping or rattling during actual fishing. Various ideas have been devised to provide power and eliminate the discomfort of gripping.

However, when the fishing reel is used, the bottom of the fishing reel is hidden because the legs of the fishing reel are fixed to the reel sheet of the fishing rod. Therefore, emphasis has been placed on preventing rattling, and a material that is rich only in cushioning properties has been used.

That is, in the fishing reels disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open Publication Nos. 48-91187 and 52-18186, no consideration is given to the decorativeness of the portion hidden by the reel sheet. Such a fishing reel places too much emphasis on the decorativeness of the part that can be visually recognized during use, and before attaching to a reel sheet of a fishing rod, for example,
Decorativeness as a fishing reel alone sold at a fishing tackle store,
In particular, it was not always satisfactory from the viewpoint of decorativeness of the bottom surface of the leg, and at least did not promote the desire to purchase.

Further, the surface treatment technology as disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. Hei 10-44308 cannot provide cushioning properties at all, and the cover body as disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Application Laid-Open No. 5-48669 hides a steal portion. It is intended to provide a cushion pattern by simply applying a color pattern on the cover body that can be used properly or a coating material or fine unevenness that improves contact resistance on a thin label. It was not rich in character and had a high decorativeness that promoted the desire to purchase.

The present invention has been made based on such a background.
