Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 3
Claim 1
Independent Claim 122 words
A spool structure for a conventional open face spinning reel comprising: a first main line storage spool and a second line storage spool on the axial outer face of the first in concentric abutting relation thereto, said spools each having a hub portion and a common rim there between, said common rim having a smooth uninterrupted circular peripheral surface, the other rim of said second spool being of less diameter than said common rim and the line capacity of said second spool being only a few turns; and means defining a plurality of equally circumferentially spaced knobs extending axially of said common rim adjacent the periphery thereof, the axial dimension of said knobs being less than the axial dimension of said spool.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 122 words
