A fishing reel includes: a spool rotatably supported in a reel main body;
a support member integrally rotating with the spool; a plurality of brake
members slidably supported to the support member; and a brake surface
provided in the reel main body, the brake surface being slidingly
contactable with the brake members; wherein according to the rotation of
the spool, an urging force is applied to the brake members in a direction
where the brake members move away from the brake surface, and the brake
members is slidingly contactable with the brake surface against the
urging force, when a centrifugal force more than a predetermined value is
applied to the spool.
