Abstract
Anti-reverse mechanism for fishing reels is provided which includes a notched wheel having a pair of dogs resiliently urged into engagement therewith, one dog having an anti-torque spring to produce silent operation and the other dog as it is urged into engagement with the wheel producing an audible sound. The silent dog is engaged by a cam which urges it out of wheel engagement and which through an arm urges the audible dog out of engagement for reverse wheel movement. The audible dog can also be urged out of engagement by a cam thereby permitting selective silent or audible anti-reverse action as desired. The foregoing abstract is not to be taken as limiting the scope of my invention and in order to understand the full nature and extent of the technical disclosure of this patent reference must be made to the accompanying drawings and the following detailed description.
