2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, there has been known a fishing reel provided with a notifying device for notifying reverse rotation of a spool during actual fishing.
This notification device informs an angler of a reverse rotation state when a spool is rotated in reverse by fish catching, for example, a configuration disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open Publication No. 59-38770 is known. .

In this publication, a spinning reel is disclosed as a fishing reel, and the notifying device includes a magnetic sensor for detecting rotation of a spool in a non-contact manner, and based on a detection signal from the magnetic sensor. , And an alarm device such as a sound and a light emitter is operated to notify the reverse rotation state.

[0004] Specifically, in the rear cylindrical portion of the spool,
A notification device is configured by mounting and fixing a case having a light emitter and a magnetic sensor with a screw, and disposing a magnet of a support portion fixed to a spool shaft to the magnetic sensor so that when the spool rotates in a reverse direction. In addition, it is configured such that a change in the magnetic force of the magnetic sensor is converted into an electric signal and the alarm is activated.

[0005]

However, since the notification device is mounted between the support portion of the spool shaft and the cylindrical portion on the rear side of the spool, the entire reel becomes large in the axial direction. Also, spool rotation detection mechanism (magnetic sensor, magnet)
Is arranged between the rotating and non-rotating portions, so that the structure is complicated and the number of parts is increased, so that the entire spool constituting the rotating body is increased in size and weight. Further, this causes problems such as deterioration of the rotation of the spool, poor replacement of parts, and poor maintainability.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made based on the above problem, and in a fishing reel incorporating a notifying device for notifying the reverse rotation of the spool, the entire reel including the spool becomes large and complicated. It is an object of the present invention to provide a fishing reel without any.

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, a fishing reel according to the present invention is formed inside an annular wall portion of a rotating body which rotates by paying out fishing line, and accommodates and holds a light-emitting body. And a visual recognition part formed in the annular wall part and capable of visually recognizing the luminous body stored and held in the storage part.

[0008] In the above structure, the term "light-emitting body" in the present invention means a small and light-weight body that emits light by itself irrespective of the rotation of a rotating body such as a spool. Specifically, one that emits light by mixing a fluorescent liquid and an activator and contains them (chemiluminescent substance), one that absorbs visible light and emits light when the absorbed energy is released (photoluminescence) Luminous body),
Alternatively, a light emitting body or the like that emits light by electric energy from a small battery corresponds thereto. In addition, the “fishing reel” according to the present invention corresponds to a fishing reel having a structure including a spool around which a fishing line is wound, such as a dual-bearing reel or a spinning reel.
