    ID this reel for me - large star drag OH

    Large star drag overhead game reel. Was bought on ebay and claimed to be Daiwa, but there is no brand or model visible. Looks to be 15-20 years old to me. Anyone able to ID?

    yeah my first thought was a Diawa Sealine. They did make them about that long ago that looked like this.

    Do a google search for "Daiwa Sealine" images.

    I can see the Daiwa thinking, but I seem to remember all those had the brand molded in the side plate, that one is smooth, but then again, I may be wrong.
