A fishing spinning reel comprises: a reel body; a rotor which is rotatably
attached to the reel body, rotated in association with a rotation of a
handle and includes a supporting arm; a bail supporting member including a
bail and a fishing line guide portion, which is reversibly supported by
the supporting arm and is adapted to be held in a fishing line-winding
position and a fishing line-releasing position; a reversing member capable
of moving in association with a reversing operation of the bail support
member from the fishing line-winding position to the fishing
line-releasing position; and a braking member elastically deformably held
by the reversing member. When the bail support member is moved from the
fishing line-winding position to the fishing line-releasing position, the
braking member is brought into contact with a braking portion formed at
the reel main body.
