Abstract

A fishing reel that includes line guide (23) with fishing line guide hole (24) formed into a rectangular shape as viewed from the front of the guide body (22) extending in the right-and-left-direction along the axis of spool (5); and pillar (30) movable in a vertical direction in the vicinity in the anterior posterior direction of the line guide (23). The pillar (30) includes fishing line guide member (31) extending along the axis. The pillar (30) is configured to be movable between a first position where the fishing line is held in the center portion (24c′) and a second position retracted from the first position. The pillar (30) may take the first position by moving downwardly for fishing line winding operation to cause the fishing line guide member (31) to guide the fishing line to the center portion (24c′) of the fishing line guide hole (24).
