2. Description of the Related Art A fishing reel provided with a clutch mechanism for automatically returning a spool from a spool free state to a winding state by rotating a drive shaft on a handle shaft by a drive motor of the spool is disclosed in Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. Sho 62 (1988). -248440. As shown in FIG. 13 , the fishing reel has a drive motor b for a spool a and a reduction gear c.
And a drive shaft d interlocked with an auto-return clutch mechanism f that automatically returns the clutch shaft e to the engagement state with the spool a by the rotation start of the drive shaft d. Gears g and h are provided at both ends. And a drive shaft j with a roller clutch i interposed therebetween, and a handle m attached to the outer end of the drive shaft d via a ratchet mechanism k. The apparatus is equipped with a depth storage device that counts and stores the number of rotations, processes the coefficient value, and rotates the drive motor b by a fixed amount.

In the above-mentioned fishing reel, when the fishing line is wound up and the operation line q is pressed in advance to start counting, the normal winding operation by the drive motor b is performed. Further, the number of revolutions of the spool a at the end of the winding is counted by the sensor n and stored in the storage unit. And
When the fishing line is set again to the fish shelf depth where the fish signal was received, the spool n is set in the free state with the lever s and the fishing line is paid out, and the sensor n counts the rotation speed at that time. When the counted value reaches the previously stored numerical value, the central processing unit in the microcomputer o outputs a predetermined motor control signal, and the motor control unit in the microcomputer o sends the clutch shaft e by the signal. The drive shaft d is rotated by the drive motor b by an amount that automatically returns to the engagement state with the spool a to automatically return the clutch shaft e to the engagement state with the spool a.
