Abstract

An electric fishing reel has a power transmission mechanism for transmitting rotational driving force based on a drive motor and a manual handle to a spool; and a clutch mechanism for switching the power transmission mechanism between a power transmitting state and a power cutoff state. The power transmission mechanism includes a planetary gear mechanism disposed on the drive motor; a first rotor with which the planetary gear mesh; a second rotor which is driven and coupled to the first rotor through a belt; and a clutch actuating member fitted and rotationally locked in the second rotor to be movable in an axial direction and is moved in the axial direction. An engaging portion of the clutch actuating member is capable of switching the power transmission mechanism between a power transmitting state and a power cutoff state by engaging with or disengaging from a retaining portion of the spool.
