PURPOSE: A tension display device of both bearing reels is provided to display the tension at an excellent level when calculating the relation between the length of a fishing gut and a spool. CONSTITUTION: A tension display device of both bearing reels includes a tension display unit(6); a torque detection unit detecting the torque acting on a spool; a rotation number detection unit detecting the number of rotations of the spool; a memory unit(67) in which the relation between the reference length of a reference fishing gut and the number of rotations are stored in advance; a relation storage(74) storing the relation of the spool with the number of rotations in the memory unit; a memory reader(75) which successively reads the reference length of the fishing gut according to the number of rotations detected by the rotation number detection unit from the memory unit; a wound-gut diameter output unit(76) successively producing the diameter of a wound gut; and a tension output unit(77) producing the tension based on the torque detected by the torque detection unit and the calculated wound gut diameter.
