2. Description of the Related Art A dual-bearing reel generally has a reel body mounted on a fishing rod, a spool rotatably supported by the reel body, a handle for rotating the spool, and transmitting the rotation of the handle to the spool. A rotation transmission mechanism. In the middle of the rotation transmitting mechanism, a clutch mechanism for transmitting / cutting off the driving force is provided. In some small dual-bearing reels such as bait reels, a clutch operating section for operating this clutch mechanism is also provided as a thumb rest, which is provided at the rear of the reel body behind the spool.

[0003] The clutch operating section of such a dual bearing reel is used for free rotation of the spool with the clutch mechanism in a disconnected state during casting.

[0004]

When such a clutch operating section is operated, when a casting method called pitching is used, it is necessary to be in a position to wait for a fish signal immediately after the lure is turned on. The lure is thrown in while palming while holding the pole with the palm. For this reason, when operating the clutch operation part behind the spool at the time of pitching, it is desirable to operate with the ball of the base of the thumb instead of the thumb of the palming hand. As described above, when the clutch operation unit is operated with the ball of the thumb, the operation is easier when the clutch operation unit is located at a relatively higher position as viewed from the spool axis than at the normal position.

[0005] On the other hand, in general casting, since the clutch operating section is operated with the thumb, if the position of the clutch operating section is too high, not only is it tired, but also it becomes difficult to perform the summing operation after the clutch operation. Also, depending on the size of the hand and the manner of palming the reel together with the rod, it may be better to position the clutch operation unit at a higher position.

However, since the operation position of the conventional clutch operation unit is set to a predetermined position in advance, the operation position is changed according to the preference of the angler such as the casting method, the palming method, and the size of the hand. Can not do it. For this reason, the conventional clutch operation unit may be difficult to perform the clutch operation depending on the angler. The object of the present invention is to
An object of the present invention is to make it easy to perform a clutch operation in accordance with an angler.

The operation body is mounted on the main body so that the operation height is variable.

In this clutch operating section, when the operating body is operated, the main body moves between the clutch engagement position and the clutch disengagement position to engage or disengage the clutch mechanism. The operating body is mounted on the main body so that the operating height is variable, so that the operating height can be changed according to the angler. For example, a person with a large hand raises the operation height, and a person with a small hand lowers the operation height.
In addition, the operation height is reduced during general casting such as overhead casting, and the operation height is increased during pitching. With such adjustment, it is possible to easily perform the clutch operation according to the angler.

The clutch operating part of the dual bearing reel according to the second aspect of the present invention is the operating part according to the first aspect, wherein the operating body is fastened to the main body with a screw at any of a plurality of mounting positions having different operating heights. Is done. In this case, since the operation height is adjusted by the screw, the structure for adjustment is simplified. The clutch operating section of the dual-bearing reel according to the third aspect of the present invention includes:
The operation unit according to the second aspect of the present invention further includes a positioning unit for positioning the operation body and the main body unit at a plurality of mounting positions by uneven fitting. In this case, since the operation section and the main body are positioned by the concave and convex fitting, the operation section and the main body are less likely to be displaced even when the operation section is operated by applying force.
