FISHING REEL

A dual-bearing reel includes a reel body, a spool shaft, a rolling bearing, and an elastic element. The spool shaft is rotatable with respect to the reel body. The rolling bearing has an outer diameter of 8 mm or less and supports the spool shaft. The rolling bearing includes an outer ring having a holding groove in an outer peripheral surface thereof, an inner ring connected to the spool shaft so as to be integrally rotatable, and a rolling element disposed between the outer ring and the inner ring. The elastic element has an annular shape and is held in the holding groove. The holding groove is located in a position that does not overlap with the rolling element in a radial direction of the spool shaft. The outer ring has a minimum thickness that is 10% or more of the outer diameter of the rolling bearing.
