The engagement of the claw plate 46 is released, the engagement portion 5a of the pinion 5 and the engagement portion 4c of the spool shaft 4 are engaged, and the clutch-on state shown in FIGS. 3 to 7 is obtained.

When the fishing reel is constructed as described above, the operation portion 7c of the switching member 7 is operated with the thumb while the entire reel is held and held in one hand. The clutch-off and clutch-on switching operations can be performed easily and quickly from holding the hand holding the reel with the operation of the natural thumb. If the fish bites at the stage of releasing the line such as when the hook hits the water at a predetermined point, the feeding of the line 18 can be stopped quickly without the rotation of the handle 17, and the fish biting timely. -A simple matching operation can be performed, and a reliable matching operation can be performed at the fishing line releasing stage, so that the fishing result can be increased.

Further, the switching member 7 can reduce the unevenness toward the upper side, and can improve the appearance. Since the switching member 7 is formed in a wide width and in a wide range, the clutch can be quickly turned on / off and the assemblability can be improved.

If the finger placement plate 20 is fixed between the left and right side frames 1, 1 ′ in front of the switching member 7, both the gripping and holding of the reel and the switching operation of the clutch can be performed without difficulty. You can do it.

When the finger hooking member 21 made of elastic material such as rubber is attached to the finger placing plate 20, it is protected from being scratched by the fish hook 22 and the needle hanging member 21 is damaged by the fish hook 22. But you can easily replace it. The hook member 21 may be changed according to the shape and size of the user's finger.

The other side portion 7e of the switching member 7 described above may be used as the second operation portion. The structure disclosed in the above-mentioned Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 5-48670 may be used in combination with the structure of the present invention. In the above description, the present invention has been described with the left handle reel, but the same effect can be obtained by implementing the present invention with the right handle reel. In the above description, the reel body A is integrally held in parallel by the left and right side frames 1, 1 ', the finger placing plate 1a, and the fixing plate 1b of the reel leg 10, but it is formed as a separate body to form the left and right side frames. 1, 1'may be held in parallel. In the above description, the fishing reel has been described as the reel in which the spool 11 is rotated by the rotation of the handle 17, but it may be implemented as an electric reel.
