To provide a motor-driven reel which quickly brings a clutch mechanism in a clutch-off state into a clutch-on state. A return mechanism (10) causes a clutch switching mechanism (9) to be in a clutch-on position by rotation of a motor and a handle. The return mechanism (10) has a return gear (101) and a return engaging portion (102). The return gear (101) rotates in accordance with the rotation of the motor and the handle. The return engagement portion (102) engages with the return gear (101) when the clutch switching mechanism (9) is in the clutch-off position. When the clutch switching mechanism (9) is in the clutch-on position, the return engagement portion (102) is disengaged from the return gear (101). The return engaging portion (102) sets the clutch switching mechanism to the clutch-on position by the rotation of the return gear (101).
